This award provides for partial reimbursement of direct expenditures for tuition, fees and books in an amount to be determined at the end of each term. The amount of reimbursement will take into account the amount of your expenditures, the grades you receive on your completed courses, the number of participants in this program and their expenditures, and the amount of available scholarship funds at the end of each term. This award may cover more than one term based on availability of funds. We cannot guarantee availability of funds or stipulate the amount of reimbursement, if any, in advance. Funds are available only for courses taken at an accredited institution of higher education approved by the Snook Foundation Scholarship Committee.

Should you be awarded this scholarship, you will be responsible to provide receipts for tuition, fees and books and a transcript or equivalent record of your successful completion of the courses attempted for the prior term. It is your responsibility to provide the required records within 30 days of the completion of the term.

Scholarships awarded by the Foundation are subject to certain conditions of enrollment, usage of scholarship funds, maintenance of minimum grades, and certain other criteria. Conditions of award will be explained in a letter to the chosen recipients. Acceptance of funds by the recipient will constitute acceptance of the terms of the award. All awards are made in good faith by the South Baldwin Education Foundation, subject to receipt of funding by the sponsoring business, organization, individual or other sponsoring entity. The Foundation assumes no responsibility for non-funding by sponsors.
