Motion has established a scholarship program to assist children of employees who plan to continue their education in college or vocational school programs (or equivalent).
This program is administered by Scholarship America®, the nation’s largest designer and manager of scholarship, tuition assistance and other education support programs for corporations, foundations, associations, and individuals. Eligibility for individual programs is determined at the sole discretion of the sponsor, and eligible applications are reviewed by Scholarship America’s evaluation team. Awards are granted without regard to race, color, creed, religion, sexual orientation, gender, disability, or national origin.
Applicants to the Motion Dependent Scholarship Program must:
*Dependent children are defined as natural and legally adopted children or stepchildren living in the employee’s household or primarily supported by the employee.
Children of officers and executives are ineligible.
Scholarship recipients are selected on the basis of:
Academic evaluation will include a review of the grade/mark average based on the grading system used in the applicant’s country and a review of the results of academic examinations.
Financial need is not considered.
Selection of recipients is made by Scholarship America. In no instance does any officer or employee of Motion Industries play a part in the selection. Not all applicants to the program will be selected as recipients. All applicants agree to accept the decision as final.
If selected as a recipient, the student will receive a $2,500 award. Up to ten (10) awards will be granted.
Provided there are qualified applicants, recipients will be selected in proportion to the number of applicants per country.
The award payments are issued in U.S. currency.
Awards are renewable up to three years or until a bachelor’s degree is earned, whichever occurs first, on the basis of satisfactory academic performance, maintaining a cumulative grade point average of 2.5 on a 4.0 scale, and continued parental employment.
Awards are for undergraduate study only.
All applicants will be notified in May.
Scholarship America processes scholarship payments on behalf of Motion Industries. Payment is made in August.
