Scholarship and Tuition Reimbursement Application Notifications

How will I be notified about the status of my application?

We send notifications primarily via email to the email address you used to create your ISTS account. Some programs offer text and voice notifications. It is your responsibility as the applicant to verify that the application status on your Home page is COMPLETE.

What notifications will be sent to me?

The types and frequency of notifications varies by program, but common scholarship communications include:

• Deadline Reminders: Deadline reminder emails are typically sent two (2) weeks and one (1) week prior to the application deadline.
• Selection Results: Selection results notifications are sent to all Complete applicants.
• Renewal Instructions: If awarded, you will be sent a notification when it is time to renew your award.
• Funds Disbursed: Once your funds have been issued, you will be notified.
• Other Scholarships: Occasionally, if you meet the requirements for another scholarship administered by ISTS, you will be notified. These notifications are not guaranteed. Your information is never sold to any third party for marketing purposes.

Who will notifications be sent from?

You will receive notifications from two (2) possible ISTS email addresses: [e-mail] and [e-mail]. You should add both of these email addresses to your “safe senders list” to ensure important emails are not sent to your spam or junk folder.

Can I opt out of notifications?

While you can opt out of notifications, this is not advised. It is your responsibility as the applicant to ensure your application is COMPLETE. If you opt out of notifications, you will not receive deadline reminders, selection results or renewal instructions. We will never sell your information to any third party. The only emails you will receive from ISTS are directly related to your application or other scholarship opportunities.

When will I receive notifications?

The timing of notifications varies by program based on the program timeline. Refer to the timeline listed on your application’s FAQ page or materials provided by your scholarship provider. Typically, deadline reminders are sent both two (2) weeks and one (1) week prior to the application deadline.
