3. Applicants may be masters or doctoral students at the University majoring in the Modeling and Simulation program.
4. Applicants, either freshman, masters, or doctorial, must be full-time students.
5. Applicants must hold a minimum 3.0 grade point average.
Two awards will be made annually and paid per semester. Each award made will be for an amount up to $2,500, or one half of the available balance in the fund prior to the award, whichever is less.

Applications for the Fall award are due April 30th, and applications for the Spring semester are due September 30th. The Fall award will be made by May 31st, and the Spring award will be made by October 31st. Application instructions will clearly state due dates and submission details.
Every attempt will be made to insure that the awards are to applicants who are full-time first year University freshman with a demonstrated interest in modeling and simulation as evident by their coursework, employment, community involvement, etc. However, if there is not an applicant that meets that selection criterion, then an award will be made to an eligible full-time master’s or doctoral student majoring in modeling and simulation at the University.
The Scholarship may not be awarded to the same student more than one time. All awards will be processed through the University Office of Student Financial Assistance.
This Scholarship, to the extent that funds are available, will be used to pay for tuition, textbooks, and student fees, and any other educational related items that can be paid utilizing the University Office of Student Financial Assistance system.
