Normally, scholarship funds are donated to the University Foundation which in turn disburses them to the University on a timely basis. The scholarship amount must be deposited in-full with the University prior to the first term for which it has been awarded. The donor cannot postpone payment of or rescind the scholarship contingent on the student performing work for the donor or completing projects for the donor. All scholarship arrangements must be approved in writing in advance by the Financial Aid Office. Return to top of page 4.
Academic supervision varies across disciplines.
Some departments are mandated by professional requirements to provide on-site, direct faculty supervision of all work during the experiential learning. Some departments conduct weekly campus meetings of experiential learning students. Less structured supervision might consist of occasional contact between the student and faculty advisor and written evaluation from the work site supervisor. Because of this variation, guidelines should be clearly documented between each department and each participating work site. Students should have access to these guidelines so that they may fully understand and monitor the extent and appropriateness of on-site supervision.
