Question - Is a scholarship guaranteed to all eligible applicants?

Answer - All applicants eligible for Tuition Exchange (TE) scholarships are not guaranteed an award. Tuition Exchange scholarships are, indeed, scholarships, not fringe benefits. The fact that an institution belongs to TE provides the dependent of an eligible employee only the right to apply for a TE scholarship. The University of Delaware, for example, limits the number of incoming TE scholarships in order to maintain a required balance between the number of students it sends out and brings in.
