E. Repayment for Failure to Meet Academic Requirements or Service Obligation<br />
<strong>The</strong> <strong>Noyce</strong> award will be considered a loan that must be repaid with interest* according to the terms <strong>of</strong> this<br />
<strong>Note</strong> (a) if the recipient fails to satisfy the academic requirements <strong>of</strong> the academic program for which the<br />
<strong>Noyce</strong> funds were awarded; or (b) if the recipient fails to complete the service requirement, or (c) if the<br />
recipient does not receive a waiver or suspension <strong>of</strong> the service obligation (Section II G), or (d) if the recipient<br />
fails to provide adequate documentation for a deferment (as described in Section IV E), or (e) in the event that<br />
the recipient transfers to a secondary mathematics licensure program that has been approved by CSU-Pueblo’s<br />
<strong>Noyce</strong> Scholars program at another accredited institution and fails to complete his/her licensure program<br />
within 24 months.<br />
If the recipient does not fulfill his or her service obligation within eight (8) years by teaching the required<br />
number <strong>of</strong> years in a high-need local educational agency (see Section IIC), the recipient becomes obligated to<br />
fully repay the scholarship. If the recipient withdraws from CSU-Pueblo prior to completion <strong>of</strong> its secondary<br />
mathematics licensure program, or transfers to another accredited institution and withdraws from that<br />
institution prior to completion <strong>of</strong> the secondary mathematics licensure program that has been approved by<br />
CSU-Pueblo’s <strong>Noyce</strong> Scholars program, or fails to meet the other academic requirements <strong>of</strong> the scholarship,<br />
the recipient becomes obligated to start repayment <strong>of</strong> the scholarship within six (6) months after his or her<br />
withdrawal from CSU-Pueblo or the other accredited institution.<br />
<strong>The</strong> recipient has twenty-four (24) months following completion <strong>of</strong> the CSU-Pueblo Teacher Education<br />
Program in mathematics to begin teaching in a high-need school or else repayment <strong>of</strong> the scholarship will<br />
start, unless the recipient receives a waiver or suspension <strong>of</strong> service obligation (Section IIG) or the recipient<br />
qualifies for a deferment (Section IV E).<br />
If upon completion <strong>of</strong> the secondary mathematics licensure program from CSU-Pueblo and obtaining a<br />
teaching license, the recipient teaches in a high-need local educational agency for a period that is less than the<br />
period <strong>of</strong> his or her service obligation, the recipient becomes responsible for repayment <strong>of</strong> the percentage <strong>of</strong><br />
the period for which the service obligation was not fulfilled.<br />
Example: An individual receives a scholarship in the total amount <strong>of</strong> $18,000 for one summer and two<br />
academic semesters <strong>of</strong> support while completing the secondary mathematics licensure program at CSU –<br />
Pueblo. <strong>The</strong> individual works in a high-need local educational agency for one full school year. <strong>The</strong><br />
individual then moves and takes a teaching position in a school district that is not high-need. If the<br />
individual remains in the district that is not high-need, then eight (8) years after completion <strong>of</strong> the<br />
secondary mathematics licensure program, the individual has fulfilled one-half (1/2) <strong>of</strong> his or her service<br />
obligation and so must repay one-half (1/2) <strong>of</strong> the scholarship, or $9,000.<br />
Until the recipient either satisfies the service obligation or repays the scholarship, the recipient agrees to<br />
provide CSU-Pueblo a current home address and telephone address, an e-mail address, and a current work<br />
address and telephone number, as well as other needed identifying information, as requested by CSU-Pueblo.<br />
In addition, the recipient understands that CSU-Pueblo and the high-need school district are or will be using<br />
the recipient’s Social Security number so that CSU-Pueblo (or CSU-Pueblo’s contracted agent) can, if necessary,<br />
secure payment <strong>of</strong> these amounts from the recipient if he or she fails to meet the service obligation or<br />
academic requirements.<br />
*Interest on the amount <strong>of</strong> the scholarship is applied as specified in the provisions <strong>of</strong> part B or D <strong>of</strong> Title IV <strong>of</strong><br />
the Higher Education Act <strong>of</strong> 1965. See Section IVC.<br />
