If a recipient fails for any reason to complete a course or course of study paid for by the T.W.U. Local 512 MEMBERS? SCHOLARSHIP FUND, ANY UNUSED FUNDS MUST BE REFUNDED TO T.W.U. LOCAL 512. D. Six (6) alternates for the $1,000.00 scholarships will be chosen in the event that one or more of the awarded recipients is not able to, or does not, attend an accredited college, university or trade/technical school.
