I was the sole member chosen for attendance at the South Bend campus of Indiana University. The scholarship was transferrable across IU campuses and supported my studies abroad, undergraduate studies at both South Bend and Bloomington, and, because I completed my four-year degree in only three years, it also supported a portion of my law school studies in Indianapolis.
