​Scholarship applications are reviewed by the SHSQ Management Committee.

It is the committee’s prerogative to publicly publish some, or all, of the criteria used for decision making.

The Management Committee will consider the membership status of the applicant. In general, each scholarship type will only be issued to one (1) student per year.
​
The Management Committee will manage conflicts of interest in decision making as defined in SHSQ Committee Roles and Responsibilities.
The decision of the Management Committee on the allocation of funds will be released before 15 May each year and is final. No follow-up correspondence will be accepted.
​Payment
​The successful applicant will receive the funds via Electronic Funds Transfer when the SHSQ Treasurer receives the receipts for registration and/or travel costs.
