The scholarship can be used at any of over 600 participating Tuition Exchange Program colleges and universities nationwide. A list of participating schools can be found at http://www.tuitionexchange.org. The award of tuition scholarship is subject to annual renewal. If your child will begin, or is already in the process of earning a bachelor’s degree at a participating Tuition Exchange Program institution, please submit the Request for Participation in the Tuition Exchange Program no later than February 28 to the Office of Human Resources.
