Once selected as the recipient of a scholarship, please follow these straightforward steps to ensure the collection of your scholarship award:

 

  1. Express Your Gratitude: The community members supporting this scholarship have placed their confidence in your future success. We strongly encourage you to take a moment to express your appreciation by sending a "thank you" card to your scholarship donor(s). A card has been included in your packet to facilitate this process.

 

  1. Accept Your Scholarship(s): Before June 30, 2023, log back into the Murrieta Dollars for Scholars website and click "ACCEPT" for your scholarships. If you currently lack certain details (such as student ID or school information), you can return to fill them in later. However, it is crucial to accept your scholarship(s) by the specified deadline to ensure the release of funds at a later date.

 

  1. Submission of Documentation: When you are prepared to have your scholarship funds sent, follow these directions:

 

  1. Provide a copy of your college registration or class schedule, confirming enrollment in at least 12 units.
  2. Include your college student ID number.
  3. Prepare a stamped legal-size envelope addressed to your college Financial Aid Office.
  4. Send these documents to: Lori Noorigian C/O Murrieta Dollars for Scholars 41870 McAlby Court Murrieta, CA 92562

This step must be completed before funds can be disbursed to your college. The deadline for this documentation is June 30, 2023; failure to comply will result in the scholarship reverting to Murrieta Dollars for Scholars for redistribution to other recipients.

  1. Disbursement of Funds: A check for the total amount of your scholarships will be sent directly to the financial aid office of your college. If you have received multiple scholarships, a single letter to Murrieta Dollars for Scholars suffices; there is no need for multiple requests.

For any queries or clarifications, please email Lori Noorigian. Your prompt attention to these instructions ensures a smooth process and timely disbursement of your scholarship funds.
