SME membership by the applicant or family member is not a consideration in awarding scholarships except when two or more applicants have equal qualifications or are stated as a requirement in a specific announcement. The scholarship review committee and other ad hoc review committees will evaluate applications during March of the award year. Their recommendations for the top candidates will be presented to the SME Education Foundation Board at their annual meeting in May. Each applicant will be notified of the final decision by the end of June.
