Unless otherwise stated in the conditions, the recipient must be in actual full-time attendance at the Áù¾ÅÉ«Ìà before receiving the awards. Payment of tuition and fees is the first charge against such awards. If the value of an award is stated as "tuition and fees", it is understood not to include differential fees.
