This includes graduate classes, AEA classes and ISEA classes. Each year 10 of these scholarships will be awarded. Classes taken last summer or during the first semester of 2016-17 are eligible for 5 of the scholarships. Another 5 scholarships will be awarded for classes taken during the second semester of 2016-17. Graduate classes will be given first consideration. If there are more than 5 applications a random drawing will be held to determine the winners at each deadline. The scholarship money will be paid for the actual cost of the class up to $100 on verification of successful completion of the class.
