How to Apply
The scholarship recipients apply for the scholarships through their college financial aide offices. The information is also available on the website https://ibwfoundation.org
Restrictions
Scholarships are awarded to students that attend RUST college and or the University of Illinois only. The scholarships are paid directly to the college in behalf of the student and not the individual. Students must have a 2.6 GPA.
Financial Trends 2022 data appears limited (dashed line) because the IRS transitioned its e-filing system that year and only published 2 months of XML archives.
