• Benefit to the person and their employer/company
• Career goals
• Previous courses/classes taken related to field

• Two personal references within the applicant’s district, with contact information, who are willing to attest to the applicant’s commitment to the industry and the District’s goals and objectives.
• Award of the scholarship may be made public information, and awardees should agree to the use of their name attached to the award if they are selected.
• Decisions will be by vote of a simple majority and all decisions will be final. Committee members shall be ineligible to vote regarding scholarships for themselves or members of their families.
• Proof that member is in good standing with one-year tenure in MBAA
• Applicants must be committed to financing all other ancillary costs, including transportation, involved with the course.
• Any misrepresentation on an application or supporting documentation will disqualify the applicant from receiving scholarship funds.
