To be eligible, Scholarship Applicants:
Participants from our international affiliates are welcomed and encouraged to apply, but should realize we do require the materials to be presented in English as we do not have translators available. Awards to international applicants will be paid to the learning institution in US dollars.
For the DISC Scholarship search, it is the applicant's CREATIVITY and involvement that are deemed most important. We want to see our applicants use their creativity and divergent thinking! The most weight in our scoring is applied to the creativity and usefulness of the solution to our challenges, and the past and continued involvement of the applicant
The two Creative Scholarship tracks you may choose from are "Marketing" and "Tool". Applicants can also apply for the Founders Award, established in recognition and appreciation of the founding members of VOMBO, the first booster organization for DI
