Section I

How to Apply

A link is provided to high school counselors in February for them to provide to students interested in applying for a scholarship. The student then creates an online account and completes the application form. The student's high school transcript must be provided. Due to pending litigation, the trustee, scholarship committee, and attorney general agreed that scholarship awards for 2023 should be determined by a mediator. However, the applications were addressed and arrived at Regions Bank (Drew McNees) and were compiled by the mediator.

On Unsolicited Proposals yes

Restrictions

Distributions are limited to the providing of scholarships to deserving young men and women of the state of Alabama to assist them in attending any educational institution.
