The recipient will receive written notification from the NSS adviser. The adviser will complete and submit a “Scholarship Award Form” to the Financial Aid Office.

It is required that the recipient sends a letter of appreciation to the Pickett family in care of the UW-EC Foundation Office. This scholarship is in memory of Nan Pickett who received two degrees as a nontraditional student and was a faculty member at UW-Eau Claire beginning in 1969. Her death was untimely at the age of 52 and her family wishes to support those nontraditional students who persevere in pursuit of an education.
