partial scholarships that start during a semester; however, a
scholarship period always ends with the semester. The funds are intended
to cover room, board, books and other educational supplies, equipment,
and other research costs of students. Approved applicants agree to not
pursue paid employment for the duration of the scholarship.)

$(P The D Language Foundation may offer to renew a scholarship for
existing/former recipients without the need to complete a new
application. The Foundation also reserves the rights to terminate a
scholarship before the end of semester if it assesses that the funds are
misused, progress in research is inadequate, or recipient behaves in a
manner unbecoming of an outstanding student and young researcher.)

$(P We wish our applicants good luck and are looking forward to hearing from
you. Feel free to direct any related questions to foundation@dlang.org.)
