Award Disbursement:
1. For recipients selecting the “Tuition and Fees” option, $500 of award money will be distributed through Northern Arizona University one time, and directly applied to the winner’s tuition and fees for the following Spring semester of that academic year.
2. For recipients selecting the “Room and Board” option, $500 of award money will be presented to the winner in the form of a check made payable to the recipient. All checks must be cashed within 30 days of receipt or they will be voided. Awardees must apply the funds towards living expenses, cost of room and board, life sustaining functions, or contribute towards academic functions during their scholastic career.

Selection and Application Process:

Selection is based solely on the applicant’s response to the leadership scenario. LMYC Scholarships does not discriminate or request information to make award decisions based on ethnicity, national origin, gender, identity, sexual orientation, disability, religion or age, in accordance with federal anti-discrimination laws and the statutes.

Individuals may submit only one (1) application per scholarship per scholarship cycle. In the event an applicant submits more than one (1) application, only the first submission will be utilized during the assessment process.

An individual may not receive more than one (1) of a specific scholarship award (e.g. The Lumberjack Military Leadership Scholarship) during their academic career. Previous recipients / winners are authorized to apply for future scholarships or awards if they become available so long as it is NOT an award or scholarship they have already received.

Students should know that scholarships may reduce government financial aid by lessening their overall financial need.

Applicant Records Security and Retention

LMYC Scholarships does not collect highly confidential information for the privacy and protection of our scholarship applicants. All information collected during the application process is managed safely and not shared with anyone outside of Freestone’s scholarship selection committee for application review and awarding purposes, and the company’s accounts payable department to distribute tuition reimbursements to scholarship winners.

LMYC Scholarships does not sell, license or otherwise use applicant information or data for any additional purposes.

To track scholarship tuition reimbursement payments and to ensure that each awardee only receives one scholarship, LMYC Scholarships will permanently retain the names and details of its scholarship winners. Additional electronic applicant records will be purged after the scholarship award selection process has concluded.

Consent for Marketing and Media Activities

All LMYC Scholarships award recipients authorize that their name and image may be shared publicly in LMYC Scholarships communications, and agree to participate in marketing activities as appropriate, which include but are not limited to media interviews, and inclusion in LMYC Scholarships website and social media content. LMYC Scholarships may request from you at a later time that you sign a lengthier, more detailed consent provision.

LMYC Scholarships retains the right to deny, revoke, limit, or otherwise change the awarding of any scholarship at anytime if deemed appropriate or necessary by the Board of Directors.
