DISBURSEMENT POLICY

Scholarships are awarded on the basis of full-time, full year attendance for the succeeding academic year. Scholarship payments are made, by the UW-River Falls Foundation, the fall and spring semester following the selection of recipients. Payments are direct credits to the students account in the Cashier's Office. Awards of $500 or less, are credited for the full amount fall semester. Awards of $501 and above, are divided equally between fall and spring semester. If a student does not attend a portion of the school year, the money that would have been awarded will be held for the student until the end of the academic year. If the student enrolls before the end of the academic year, the money will be released; if not, the money will be returned to the scholarship account.

Enrollment status (i.e., credits) will not affect the amount of the money received unless the student enrolls for less than six credits. Students who enroll for less than six credits are not eligible to receive a scholarship.
