Scholarship Phase Clause Samples
The Scholarship Phase clause defines the period during which a scholarship recipient is actively engaged in the program and subject to its terms. Typically, this clause outlines the start and end dates of the scholarship, the obligations of the recipient during this time, and any milestones or requirements that must be met to maintain eligibility. By clearly delineating the timeframe and expectations, the clause ensures both parties understand when the scholarship benefits apply and what is required for continued participation, thereby preventing misunderstandings and disputes over the duration or conditions of the award.
