Notification
Scholarship winners will be notified by phone by the fourth Saturday of May. Winners will be invited to attend our Awards Banquet in July, where they will be formally recognized. Scholarship money will be submitted directly to the college/university that the student attends (please ensure all information on the scholarship application is completed and correct). If for some reason the recipient of the scholarship is unable to attend school or becomes ineligible after application submission (i.e. decides not to attend college, etc.), the recipient must immediately notify West Indies United. The money will then be awarded to the next eligible applicant. Scholarships will be given out by October of said year.
NOTE: In order to receive the scholarship, we will need the address of your school’s financial aid office and your student ID number.
