Bridges and Pipelines Scholarship FAQ
last updated 2011.Mar.11

Q1: Is there a separate application required in addition to applying to the university?
If so, how do students get an application?

A1:  Yes -- the form is available at the website mentioned in the brochure:
   http://www.radford.edu/sstem


Q2: What is the application process?  

A2: The student can fill print out and fill the application and mail
it back, or can email a file (.pdf or .doc/.docx only).  Letters of
recommendation should be submitted  the same way, by the recommender. 


Q3: When are students notified?

A3: We'll notify students shortly after the regular deadline (around
2011.Apr.13).
If we don't get enough applicants who meet the criteria, we'll continue
accepting-and-notifying on a rolling basis after that.

 
Q4: How many of the 20 scholarships are available to students who did
not participate in the pre-college programs?

A4: 12 are open to all, with the other 8 being reserved for
participants in those programs.  After the regular deadline (2011.Apr.07),
any of the reserved slots that have not been awarded will be opened to all.


Q5: Are these scholarships available for academic year 2012-13 only or
is this a continuing program?

A5: It's renewable up through 2012-2013, so the 2012 cohort will get
2 years of assistance (assuming they maintain good standing, of course).
