The Board of Regents has been charged with managing data across the 16 participating institutions to monitor initial and continuing eligibility requirements. Before the start of each academic year, campus personnel are responsible for updating student demographic and performance data to ensure that all students who have maintained their status in the scholarship program are eligible for continued funding. On October 1st during the fall term, and February 25th during the spring term, campuses submit funding requests for all eligible students, which are then reviewed before funding allocations are made. Data regarding the scholarship program can be found within the Board of Regents' Annual Fact Book (typically released in January each year).
