Current through Register Vol. XLI, No. 50, December 13, 2024

Section 133-26-12 - Relationship to Other Financial Assistance

12.1. Underwood-Smith Teaching Scholars Program awards plus other financial assistance shall not exceed the cost of attendance at the institution the student is attending. Cost of attendance will be provided by a financial aid officer at the school of attendance. Cost of attendance will include the cost of tuition and fees, reasonable allowances for books, educational supplies, room and board, and other expenses necessitated by individual circumstances such as a physical disability.

12.2. Should the scholarship award plus the amount of other financial awards exceed the cost of attendance, the institution's financial aid officer, in consultation with the recipient will determine what aid is to be reduced. This adjustment should be to the best advantage of the recipient.

12.3. Institutions are strongly encouraged to allow flexibility in the use of institution based financial aid awards so that they can be used in conjunction with the Underwood-Smith Teaching Scholar award.
