About the SAP North America Scholarship Program

The SAP North America Scholarship Program wishes to recognize outstanding undergraduate students pursuing a degree in business, computer science, mathematics, or engineering. Each academic year, SAP will award up to 15 students with a $5,000 scholarship (in local currency) that is intended to assist students in defraying tuition expenses for that one academic year, under the following terms:

• Scholarship funds are intended to assist the student in defraying tuition expenses and may not be used to cover other costs, such as books, room, or board.
• If annual tuition is less than $5,000, the remaining amount may be carried forward to the next academic year, without the need for the student to requalify for that subsequent year.
• The scholarship payment will be made directly to the designated and eligible university and is not transferable to other academic institutions
