DISBURSEMENTS
IMPORTANT THINGS TO KNOW:
Each June, we reach out to all winners (from the current year and returning students) via email with instructions on how to access your funds.
In that email will be a link to an online form that you must fill out to receive your scholarship(s).
The form will ask you to upload proof of enrollment. Returning students will also be asked to upload their most recent college transcript.
We cannot disburse any funds until we receive the completed form.
Scholarships not claimed by December 31st of the award year will be forfeited.
If your email address changes, please let us know immediately.
DEFERRMENTS:
Occasionally students need to defer an award. TCSP typically allows students to defer for one year for any reason (such as taking a gap year) or two years for religious missions. You may also request an deferment if your financial aid package makes it impossible to use the award in a given year. Please contact us if you plan to defer.
WHAT EXPENSES DO TCSP SCHOLARSHIPS COVER?
TCSP wants to give families as much flexibility as possible to pay for college, and so our scholarships generally apply to all costs of attendance. These include:
Tuition and fees
Books, course materials, supplies, and equipment
Cost of housing and food
Transportation expenses
Fees related to school medical insurance and services
Costs of obtaining a license, certification, or professional credential related to your degree
Please note that the IRS is stricter on what it considers qualified educational expenses. Funds used for non-qualified expenses like housing, food, travel, and insurance may be subject to taxes.
Please keep in mind that not every scholarship can be used for every expenses. The specific parameters of each scholarship are outlined in the TCSP booklet.
WHAT EXPENSES ARE NOT COVERED?
Personal expenses, such as entertainment, recreation, clothes, self-care and grooming services, etc.
Activities that do not generate credit toward your degree, certificate, or license
Non-academic programs, such as National Outdoor Leadership Program (NOLS) and Outward Bound
WHAT TO DO IF YOU RECEIVE A SCHOLARSHIP AND NO LONGER NEED IT:
If you’re in the fortunate position of having been offered awards that exceed your anticipate expenses, we ask that you consider releasing any unneeded TCSP awards to a runner-up. This decision is entirely up to you, based upon your family’s private, personal assessment of your individual circumstances. If you do have unneeded funds and choose to release them, please contact us.
