Tuition usually is paid by the participant's employer or sponsoring organization.
Upon selection, payment is due in full prior to the start of the program year. Given the limited scholarship funds available, it may not be possible to honor all scholarship requests. Requests for scholarship support do not affect the selection process. Sponsorships Applicants also may solicit tuition assistance from a sponsoring organization, such as a business, corporate foundation or private foundation. Seeking and securing these sponsorships is the sole responsibility of the applicant.
