All scholarship recipients are expected to comply with the following practices:
- Write a letter of appreciation within two weeks of receiving your award letter. We desire to assure all scholarship donors that their contributions are appreciated and will make a difference in your life. Please write a thoughtful letter including information about your background, interests, goals, and commitment as a scholarship recipient. Address your letter to “Scholarship Donor,” print the name of the scholarship in the upper right-hand corner, and send it to:
BYU Scholarship Office
A-41 ASB
Provo UT 84602
- Provide service. We ask that all scholarship recipients provide a minimum of 15 hours of meaningful service for each semester awarded. As the beneficiary of someone else’s generosity, we encourage you to perpetuate good will by blessing others in turn. You do not need to submit a proposal, receive approval, or report your service to the Financial Aid and Scholarship Office.
- Exemplify good citizenship. We expect you to abide by the Honor Code, encourage others to do likewise, and, whenever possible, attend the weekly campus devotionals and forums.
- Replenish funds. We invite you to embrace the principle of replenishment by making the commitment now to contribute financially to the university’s scholarship funds as circumstances in your life allow. Your generosity will ensure that future generations of students enjoy the same opportunity to pursue a world-class education in an environment centered in the gospel of Jesus Christ.
- Use this investment wisely. Your scholarship is funded by the tithes of members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and/or offerings of generous friends of the university. We hope you will recognize the faith, sacrifice, and trust that make your award possible. BYU offers this scholarship as an investment in your education. You have the responsibility to use this gift wisely to prepare for meaningful service in your family, community, and the world.
