   of You Scholarship. NU may correct any such errors in its sole discretion.
 * NU makes no warranties of any kind, express or implied, with respect to the
   The Year of You Scholarship. Acceptance, participation in and/or use of the

   responsible for any damages whatsoever including special, indirect, or
   consequential damages arising out of or in connection with the use and/or
   misuse of the The Year of You Scholarship.
 * NU is not responsible for late, lost, misdirected, or unintelligible entries,
   including entries not received because of interrupted or unavailable network
   services, failed communications networks or equipment, computer hardware or
   software, or other errors or malfunctions, whether human, mechanical or

 * Should NU, in its sole discretion, determine that the The Year of You
   Scholarship submission, selection, or any other process has been compromised
   by virus, bugs, tampering, disruptions, hackers, or other causes beyond its
   control, NU reserves the right to void suspect entries, disqualify applicants
   suspected to be involved, and/or terminate such selection or other process
   and choose the awardees in a fair and reasonable manner from among all
   eligible entries submitted prior to such termination. All decisions of NU are
   final.
 * Regardless of any action taken by NU pursuant to these Terms and Conditions,
   nothing shall prohibit NU from seeking any other lawful remedies to which NU
   may be entitled in the event any representations or releases made by the
   Scholarship applicant or recipient are false.
 * Award Use
   
   
   
   * Scholarships that are awarded to the recipients may only be credited to
     their accounts and used to assist with the payment of their tuition in an
     eligible program and are not redeemable in cash.
   * No student will receive more than one The Year of You Scholarship.
   * No student will receive more than one offer of assistance from NU, such as
     scholarships, grants, technology awards, or preferred tuition rates.
   * Any Scholarship funds that are awarded may only be applied toward tuition
     and may not be used for other purposes, including, but not limited to, the
     purchase of books, any fees that may be applicable to their degree program,
     room and board, or outside materials (computers, internet service etc.).
 * For applicants using FFA, the applicant understands that a scholarship award
   is financial assistance and counts toward the student’s cost of attendance.
   As such, the amount of FFA available to the student may be impacted. The
   Student Financial Services team will conduct a financial review of all
   Scholarship winners and articulate any changes needed to the respective
   recipients.
 * Any courses accepted as transfer from another school to an NU degree plan
   will only reduce the necessary coursework required to complete a degree at NU
   and will not result in any additional unused scholarship funds.
 * Courses taken under the Scholarship may be recorded against the student’s
   calendar year 1098-T.


MAINTAINING ELIGIBILITY

 * All existing student policies located in the NU Catalog and these Terms and
   Conditions must be adhered to while the recipient is a student at NU.
 * For the duration of the award, students must be succeeding in their degree
   program. The student must maintain a Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) of
   GOOD. Please see the current NU Catalog for SAP definitions.
 * Should a Scholarship recipient withdraw or be dismissed from NU prior to
   disbursement of all Scholarship funds awarded to them, the balance of the
   tuition funds awarded, but not disbursed, will be terminated and will not be
   available to the student for future courses.
 * If a Scholarship recipient withdraws from a course or receives a non-passing
   grade, the cost to retake the course later will not be discounted by the The
   Year of You Scholarship.
 * Scholarship funds may only be applied to courses in the recipient’s original
   academic program following award of the scholarship, except as follows: (1)
   the recipient opts to transfer to a new academic program prior to completion
   of 33% or more of the courses in the original academic program, or (2) the
   recipient opts to transfer to a new specialization within the original
   academic program prior to completion of 33% or more of the courses in the
   original specialization. Scholarship funds are not otherwise transferable.
