GUIDELINES AND ELIGIBILITY
Deadlines and Awards
The Aleut Foundation Educational Scholarship applications have different requirements and deadlines depending on the time of the year.
Fall
DEADLINES Students who apply for the fall annual funding are automatically funded for spring after they meet the spring/winter semester/quarter reporting requirements. These students are not required to fill out a spring application. The deadline for the fall annual application is June 30th or the Friday before June 30th should that date fall on a weekend.
AWARDS Semester students receive half of their total award in the fall and the other half will be awarded in the spring after TAF has received a copy of the student’s fall semester grades and a copy of their spring class schedule. Fall grades and spring class schedules must be received by The Aleut Foundation by March 31. If they are not, TAF will assume the student is not utilizing that portion of his/her award.
Quarter students receive one-third of their award in the fall and one-third in the winter after TAF receives a copy of the fall quarter grades and a copy of their winter class schedule. The remaining one-third will be sent after receiving a copy of the student’s winter grades and a copy of the student’s spring class schedule. Winter grades and spring class schedules must be received by TAF by March 31. If they are not, TAF will assume the student is not utilizing that portion of his/her award.
