Enrollment at any accredited college or university, including community<br />

college and technical college, will be considered.<br />

Selection Criteria and Process<br />

It is WBA’s desire to not only assist students and <strong>the</strong>ir families financially,<br />

but also to take an active role in developing tomorrow’s leaders.<br />

Therefore, selection will be based on a student’s academic achievement,<br />

extracurricular activities, and community service.<br />

WBA will select scholarship recipients on an objective and nondiscriminatory<br />

basis. WBA will not discriminate on <strong>the</strong> basis <strong>of</strong> race, gender, sexual<br />

orientation, ethnicity, or religion. WBA may, however, take into account<br />

criteria reasonably related to <strong>the</strong> purposes <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> WBA scholarship program.<br />

Scholarship recipients will be notified in June 2012 and announced at <strong>the</strong><br />

WBA annual convention.<br />
