PART X, LINE 2:	THE ORGANIZATION IS EXEMPT FROM INCOME TAX UNDER SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE U.S. INTERNAL REVENUE CODE. ACCORDINGLY, NO PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES HAS BEEN PROVIDED IN THESE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. IN ADDITION, THE ORGANIZATION QUALIFIES FOR THE CHARITABLE CONTRIBUTION DEDUCTION UNDER SECTION 170(B)(1)(A) AND HAS BEEN CLASSIFIED AS AN ORGANIZATION THAT IS NOT A PRIVATE FOUNDATION UNDER SECTION 509(A)(1). U.S. GAAP REQUIRES THE RECOGNITION, MEASUREMENT, CLASSIFICATION, AND DISCLOSURE IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS TAKEN OR EXPECTED TO BE TAKEN IN THE ORGANIZATION'S TAX RETURNS. MANAGEMENT HAS DETERMINED THAT THE ORGANIZATION DOES NOT HAVE ANY UNCERTAIN TAX POSITIONS AND ASSOCIATED UNRECOGNIZED BENEFITS THAT MATERIALLY IMPACT THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OR RELATED DISCLOSURES. SINCE TAX MATTERS ARE SUBJECT TO SOME DEGREE OF UNCERTAINTY, THERE CAN BE NO ASSURANCE THAT THE ORGANIZATION'S TAX RETURNS WILL NOT BE CHALLENGED BY THE TAXING AUTHORITIES AND THAT THE ORGANIZATION WILL NOT BE SUBJECT TO ADDITIONAL TAX, PENALTIES, AND INTEREST AS A RESULT OF SUCH CHALLENGE. GENERALLY, THE ORGANIZATION'S TAX RETURNS REMAIN OPEN FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAX EXAMINATIONS FOR THREE YEARS FROM THE DATE OF FILING.

Form And Line Reference	PART I, LINE 2:	FormAndLineReferenceDesc
Explanation	THE COLLEGE CONNECT DIRECTOR CONVENES A SCHOLARSHIP SELECTION COMMITTEE THAT ASSESSES EACH SCHOLARSHIP APPLICATION TO DETERMINE WHICH STUDENTS NEED THE MOST FINANCIAL SUPPORT. IN SOME CASES, STUDENTS THAT WERE AWARDED SCHOLARSHIPS IN THEIR FIRST YEAR OF COLLEGE MAY NOT BE AWARDED A SCHOLARSHIP THE FOLLOWING YEAR DUE TO A CHANGE IN THEIR FINANCIAL AID PACKAGE. CHANGES IN FINANCIAL AID PACKAGES CAN BE DUE TO A STUDENT RECEIVING A SCHOLARSHIP, MORE OR LESS AID FROM THEIR COLLEGE OR UNIVERSITY. HAVING THE FLEXIBILITY TO AWARD STUDENTS WITH THE BIGGEST FINANCIAL NEEDS HELPS US MANAGE THE AMOUNT OF DEBT STUDENTS WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR AFTER COLLEGE GRADUATION. STUDENTS WITH THE HIGHEST FINANCIAL NEEDS HAVE THE HIGHEST PRIORITY TO RECEIVE SCHOLARSHIPS. THE COMMITTEE ALSO CONSIDERS PROGRAM PARTICIPATION AND CITIZENSHIP STATUS AS CRITICAL FACTORS IN RECIPIENT SELECTION. STUDENTS MUST DEMONSTRATE A COMMITMENT TO THE PROGRAM WHILE STILL IN HIGH SCHOOL IN ORDER TO BE SELECTED. COLLEGE CONNECT PARTICIPATION AND ATTENDANCE IS A STRONG INDICATOR OF THE STUDENT'S ABILITY TO MAINTAIN COMMUNICATION WHILE IN COLLEGE. A STUDENT WITH POOR COMMUNICATION AND LOW ATTENDANCE WILL LIKELY DEMONSTRATE THIS WHILE IN COLLEGE, AND IS AT RISK FOR LOW ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE AND DROPPING OUT. CITIZENSHIP IS ALSO A FACTOR BECAUSE OF THE LIMITED OPTIONS FOR FINANCIAL AID, EDUCATIONAL GRANTS, AND SCHOLARSHIPS FOR STUDENTS THAT ARE NOT CITIZENS. RECIPIENTS ARE THEN SELECTED BASED ON THEIR OUTSTANDING FINANCIAL NEED (AFTER OTHER FINANCIAL AID SOURCES ARE INCLUDED) AND PROGRAM INVOLVEMENT.	ExplanationTxt
