There were 143 applicants who applied for the $74,000 currently available.
It is important to note, however, that the FSM Congress is considering whether to appropriate $250,000 for scholarships.
If approved, most of this money will be used for undergraduate students.
The scholarship staff will compile a list of 37 undergraduate students based on the board’s criteria and award $2,000 to each student for both fall and spring semesters of 2009-2010.
