Scholarship Management
The Pennsylvania State USBC Youth Association Board of Directors manages the Scholarship Account. The Pennsylvania State USBC Youth Association Manager will answer questions, check on scholarship availability, receive and approve scholarship use requests, and disburse scholarship checks, per this policy.
Time Availability
Your scholarship funds are available for your use, up to the end of the calendar year of your twenty-fourth (24th) birthday. If no birth date is given, your scholarship will expire two years from the date of issue. Any funds remaining after this time period will revert back to the Pennsylvania State USBC Youth Association scholarship fund, and the funds will no longer be available to you. No extension of time will be granted.
Scholarship Use
Scholarship funds may be utilized for post secondary education, graduate studies, continuing education courses, vocational or technical schools, or for training at approved trade or business schools.
In addition, the scholarship may be applied at any time to educational seminars and training, bowling academies and camps, specialized educational camps and studies abroad. Prior to applying for funds for such training you must furnish the Pennsylvania State USBC Youth Association with complete details regarding the school, training to be pursued, length of training, etc.
The Pennsylvania State USBC Youth Association Board approves the use of all scholarships in question - and all decisions are final.
Accepted Expenses
Funds may be used for tuition, room and board (if living away from home and on a campus) textbooks, meal plans, optional fees of the institution or organization, and equipment necessary for the completion of the course study which can be fully documented.
Limitations
Scholarship funds can not be applied to the cost of primary or secondary private education, private tutors, sports camps which do not include bowling, specialty equipment or research work and travel which is not directly related to the course study or chosen field of study, transportation to and from the recipients home and the institution or organization, personal clothing or any other personal needs.
Scholarships are not contingent upon grades. However, if for any reason you should leave school permanently, any remaining funds would revert back to the Pennsylvania State USBC Youth Association scholarship fund. We must be promptly notified if this should occur.
Non-Transferable
These funds may only be used by the recipient and are not transferable.
