A picture of the scholarship recipient is also requested at this time for publication in the Fall Issue of the Totem II and on our website.

HOW WINNER MAY USE AWARD MONEY

Scholarship monies are always sent directly by LLAA to the Financial Aid Office of the college/school the recipient will be attending. The college/school sets up a student account for the scholarship recipient. Monies in that account may be used only by the student scholarship recipient and only for tuition, books and lab fees. Recipients of an LLAA scholarship must use the scholarship money during the school year following his/her High School graduation. The college/school is required to return any unused funds at the end of the first year to the LLAA Scholarship Fund or if the student is not registered for any quarter/semester during that first year.
