Sounds great but you should specify "related to Club members"...does this mean just immediate relatives or even someone remotely related to a Club member...a prospective applicant ... :-)
ReplyDeleteGood question ... In truth, I don't know yet but intend to find out. I think it should be immediate relatives or direct dependents ... I will find out and clarify this in due course.
DeleteWHAT ARE THE RESTRICTIONS?
DeleteThe following are not eligible for master’s degree fellowships. However, they may apply for the professional development program, but if selected, must pay for all costs associated with the program:
Active and honorary Rotarians
Employees of a Rotary club, Rotary district, Rotary International, or other Rotary entity
Spouses, lineal descendants (children or grandchildren by blood or legal adoption), spouses of lineal descendants, or ancestors (parents or grandparents by blood) of any living person in the categories above
Former Rotarians and their relatives as described above (within 36 months of resignation)
Additionally, fellows in the professional development program or participants in Rotary’s former Ambassadorial Scholarships program must wait at least three years before they can apply for the master’s degree fellowship.
Rotary Peace Fellows who have completed the master's degree program may not apply for the professional certificate program.
by saying application portion form does it mean to fill only page no 5 &6 and send?
