SBAST Scholarship Program
The goal of the SBAST Scholarship Program is an effort to
support swimmers who have been members of the South Belt Area
Swim Team, and endeavor to gain a higher education after
graduation from high school. Scholarships will be awarded
annually based on the amount of scholarship funds available and
the number of applicants in any given year. The SBAST
Board will determine the amount and number of scholarships to be
awarded during the June board meeting. Selection of
recipients will be made from qualified swimmers that have
completed and submitted the Scholarship Application by June 1st
to any member of the Scholarship Committee.
Scholarship disbursements will be calculated as follows once
the total amount of funds available and number of recipients
have been determined:
- A = Number of years recipient has participated in the
SBAST program
- B = Total number of years of participation by all
recipients
- C = Total amount of funds available for disbursement
- D = Amount of funds the recipient will receive
D = (A/B) x C
Recipients will be chosen by the Scholarship Committee and
submitted to the SBAST Board of Directors for approval at
the June board meeting. Scholarship awards will be
announced at the July SBAST Team Banquet. The funds
will be deposited to the recipient's account at the college
or university by the SBAST treasurer upon verification of
enrollment. Scholarship recipients must have enrolled
at a college or university by the end of January 2008 to
receive the scholarship or forfeit. |
