Awardees will each receive a cash award plus an award certificate.
The recipient is the sole end benefactor of this award;
such an award must not be transferred to the third party.

2. The HSS Awards -- ONS and ENS.

The HSS will provide additional funds for ONS and serve as a
supplement for ONS with lower criteria.  Students qualified for
ONS will receive the ONS with fund from the HSS if available
for this high school.  The criteria and award amount for ONS
are specified in GB corresponding resolutions.  The number of
ONS with funds from HSS will increase as more high schools
have HSS.

The HSS award annually ENS with a cash amount of $300 or more,
depending on the level of donations. The awardees must be

(1) from the specific high school where the HSS is available,
(2) not qualified for ONS,
(3) better in academic standing than the rest students from
the specific high school, or better than the average
new students in USTC if the candidate is the only one
student admitted to USTC that year.

The assessment on academic standing might vary from year to year.
It will be based on USTC recommendation and the preference of
HSS subfund managers.

3. The HSS Fund Management.

The HSS subfunds are subject to the regulation on special subfunds
of AF.  The donors of an HSS subfund may form a management group
to raise donations and to assist GB to issue ENS awards.

selection process as provided may not be the best or complete but
will assume no liability for such and will reserve the right to
drop any candidate based on its best judgments.

standards. If an awardee is found to have serious misconduct,
such as cheating on grades or the College Entrance Exam,
forging merit documents, or participating in criminal activities,

to publicize and notify concerned parties, or to seek further
legal actions if applicable. The revoked awardee will be

中国科大校友基金会高中奖学金评选规则

[高中奖学金评选规则中文版和英文版如有抵触,以英文版本为准。]

说明
◇   AF:Alumni Foundation即校友基金会缩写
GB:governing board即理事会缩写
HSS:High School Scholarship即高中奖学金缩写
ONS : Outstanding New Student Award杰出新生奖学金缩写
ENS: Excellent New Student Award 优秀新生奖学金缩写
AF, GB, HSS, ONS, or ENS 等缩写在规则中意义唯一,不做其他解释。

 

1目标
吸引最优秀的高中毕业生加盟中国科技大学。每位获奖者将获得奖金(现金支付)和奖学金
证书。获奖者是奖学金的最终和唯一受益人,奖学金不得转给第三方。

2与ONS、ENS的关系
高中奖学金(HSS)和杰出新生奖学金(ONS)有直接关系,为杰出新生奖学金提供额外资
金,并且由于高中奖学金条件更为宽松。符合杰出新生奖学金条件的学生将获得由高中奖学
金基金支付的杰出新生奖学金(如果他毕业的中学有高中奖学金的话)。ONS的标准和金额
由校友基金会理事会的相关决议规定。随着更多高中奖学金的设立,更多的杰出新生奖学金
将由高中奖学金的资金支付。

高中奖学金每年提供不少于300美元的资金,具体金额根据捐款数目确定。 ENS
获奖者应该符合以下条件:
(1) 毕业于设立高中奖学金的中学;
(2) 不满足杰出新生奖学金的获奖条件;
(3) 学习成绩优于该中学其他考入科大的学生;如果奖学金候选人唯一,则其
成绩应优于科大新生平均成绩。
学习成绩评定标准每年可能有所不同,将根据中国科大和高中奖学金的管理者
的意见确定。

基金会理事会建议采用以下方式:
1)高考成绩和科大入学复试加权成绩(比例为2:1)
高于科大录取平均成绩,或者高于所在系平均录取成绩。
如有未参加高考的保送生申请奖学金,成绩使用高
三平时成绩和科大入学复试加权成绩(比例1:1)
评定。如高三平时成绩难以获得,允许直接根据评定。
2)如果有多于一个同学同时考取科大,成绩最佳者,
自动取得获奖资格。
3)如果有重大比赛获奖(国际数理化、信息、生物学
奥林匹克竞赛金银铜牌、入选以上比赛国家集训队、
入选以上比赛冬令营、各省市自治区高考前五名、
科大少年班入学考试前三名),自动享有获奖资格。
4)科大入学复试通常为数学、物理、英语三科,在只
考查单科(如英语)的年度,区分度不高,此时不
考虑入学考试情况:如果没有保送生,根据高三平
时成绩和高考成绩评选(比例:1:2);有报送生情
况,根据平时成绩评选。
5)获得全国、省、市、地、县、学校、年级等任何档次
的三好学生、学生干部或者类似称号,在评选中不享
有任何优先权。
6)经济困难同学只能在同等情况下优先考虑,因校友
基金会另设专门针对贫困生的爱心奖学金,中国科
大也有相应配套措施。

 

3 高中奖学金基金管理
高中奖学金的资金管理遵守基金会相关基金决议的规定。高中奖学金的捐赠人可以组成
管理小组,进行筹集捐款、协助基金会理事会颁发ENS奖学金。多个中学的高中奖学金可
以合并组成(针对多个中学的)ENS奖学金。

4 科大义务
科大负责推荐ENS奖学金候选人,负责帮助将奖学金和证书发放给获奖者。

 

5 基金会理事会拥有高中奖学金所有相关事务的唯一决定权。校友基金会理事会不对任何由
于中学或者科大未履行上述义务造成的争论负任何责任。理事会承认上述评奖过程的标准和
信息可能并不是最佳的,也不完全。但是不对评奖规则本身负责,同时保留根据评奖标准放
弃任何候选人的权利。

6 获奖人条件:校友基金会奖学金获得者应是品质优良。
如果任何获奖人发现存在任何严重的不适当行为,例如在高考或其他考试中作弊、
伪造荣誉证书、参与犯罪活动,校友基金会保留取消获奖人证书的权利,公布或通
知当事人。并保留采取进一步法律行动的权利。

7 抵触条款:校友基金会保留本规则的最终解释权。理事会就获奖事宜做出的决定是最终的。

0. Purpose: This award is designed to attract the most outstanding high
school graduates to attend USTC. Awardees will each receive a cash
award plus an award certificate. The recipient is the sole end
benefactor of this award; such an award must not be transferred to the
third party.

Note: AF is a shorthand name for USTC Alumni Foundation
(USTCAF); GB stands for the governing board of USTCAF. The
usage of AF or GB is exclusive in this article; no other interpretation
is acceptable.

1. Award Categories:

(A) Award to the most outstanding students. Provincial #1 in
College Entrance Examination is automatically qualified. Perspective

The award amount is USD$400, USTC matches to RMB 4,000.

 

2. Selection procedures

Each year when information concerning the criteria adopted is
available, USTC should give a single complete list of candidates
with detailed qualification information to the governing board of
AF (GB as hitherto referred) at the earliest convenience, which is
preferred to be before the new students registration if applicable.
AF and GB are not responsible for later or incomplete information
of candidates. GB makes decisions based on merits of candidates, as
well as the availability of AF's fund balance. GB voting will make
the decision on candidates.

The total award from AF each year must not exceed the total amount
allocated in AF's fiscal budget that year. In consideration of the
criteria, size of USTC  and AF, the number of awardees is not fixed
but is preferable not to exceed the number of departments in USTC.
However, this does not imply that the award has any implicit or
explicit relation with the department where a student is affiliated.
Moreover, the budget restriction does not apply to awards made
by special funds.

3. Responsibilities of USTC

It is the responsibility of USTC to make public the selection
criteria of this award to all eligible candidates. It is the
responsibility of USTC to submit a comprehensive list of candidates
to GB in time for decision of awardees. It is of the responsibility
of USTC to distribute the awards and certificates to awardees when
an official AF representative is not on scene. All eligible
candidates should contact USTC for issues regarding nomination.
AF welcomes comments and feedback from candidates or other students
but recognizes that USTC's nomination list through the official
channel is the only nomination list to be based on. AF is not liable
for any dispute due to failure of USTC to comply with such
responsibilities.

GB recognizes that the standards and available information used
may not be the sole best criteria to make a judgement on individual
students from different backgrounds and education and assume no
liability on the use of the standard. GB reserves the right to
decline any candidate when there is no unified standard to compare
between the candidates in all the new students in large. For
example, #1 in any one class is not automatically eligible for
this award with the exclusion of special funds. AF and GB
respect the excellence of these and other students declined but
is limited to award only the candidates best fit into AF's scope
and goal. It is the responsibility of USTC and students in seeking
appropriate award and maintaining a fair and workable standard in
honoring all distinguished students.

4. Status of awardees

The recipient of AF's awards should bear high moral and merit
standards. If an awardee is proven to have conducted serious
misconduct, such as cheating on grades, forging merit documents,
or participating in criminal activities, AF reserves the right
to revoke the certificate of the awardee, to publicize and
notify concerned parties, or to seek further legal actions if
applicable. The revoked awardee will be permanently banned from
receiving any future AF awards or joining the GB. The decision

RESOLUTION: GBR-2003007 USTCAF Special Fund Guidelines (Version 3)

Resolution
GBR-2003007

Title
USTCAF Special Fund Guidelines (Version 3)

Content

+ USTCAF Special Fund Guidelines (Version 3)+

~

0. Aim and purpose

University of Science and Technology Alumni Foundation (USTCAF)
allows and accepts the establishment of special fund in its operation
structure. The special fund is designed to attract donations to
serve special purposes, such as scholarships or fellowships.

The particular award supported by the special fund will be named by the
special fund organizers and must be approved by the AF board. In general,
such awards must also carry USTCAF name.  USTCAF will consult special
fund organizers on the usage of the special fund beyond its original
scope.

This document supersedes AF GB resolution GBR-1998-8-2.

1. Special fund organizers

Each special fund has to be assigned at least one designated organizer
determined by the consensus of donors of the special fund. Special fund
organizers will work out an agreement with USTC Governing Board
(USTCAF GB, or GB) on the usage and management of the special fund
within the frame of USTCAF Special Fund Guidelines stated in this
article.

Special fund organizers have the rights to monitor the operation and
management of the special fund. Special fund organizers reserve the
rights to suggest usage of the special fund beyond its original scope.

It is the responsibility of special fund organizers to collect
donations to sustain the level of the special fund. The balance and
usages of special funds are reported by GB and displayed on the Web.
The report will contain balance, interests, and all relevant financial
information.

2. Management Fee

There is no management fee for any special fund.

The operation costs of AF are distributed to the general fund
and all special funds, including those specified in Section (4),
proportionally according to the balances at the time such costs
occur.

3. Fund management

There is no special management for special funds except the
exemption specified in Section (4).  Special funds are invested
together with the general fund under the GB  resolution on
investment guidelines.

All investment gains and losses are distributed to the general
fund and special funds proportionally according to the balances
at the time.

4. Cash only special funds and independently managed funds

(A) Some special fund may keep all its balance in cash, as
typically such a special fund would be used within one year after
being raised. This would avoid market volatility of short term
investment. The fund will be kept in AF no-interest free
checking account. The fund is not subject to distribution
of gain or loss of AF investment.  The termination of cash
only status requires one year of time since the special fund
manager informs GB.

(B) A special fund may request to have its own investment plan
if its balance is either higher than $20,000 or above 1/10 of
AF total.  Such request needs to be accompanied by a 5-year
investment plan, to be approved by GB, and to be effective after
3 months.  The termination of the special investment status
requires one year of time since the special fund manager
informs GB.

5. Rights of special fund donors

The donors to special funds are considered as AF members based on AF
guidelines and are subject to AF rulings. The donors of special funds have
equal voting rights as donors to the general fund. The donors of special
funds are eligible for AF benefits.

6. Bill of Conflicts

Special funds are part of AF's property. Usage of special fund beyond
its original scope has to be initiated by special fund organizers and
approved by GB.

However, if there is a conflict of interests, organizers of special fund can
protest in various means, including send messages to AF's mailing list.
But the decisions by GB on the operation of any funds which are parts of
AF's property, including special funds, are final. AF bears no legal
obligations to special fund organizers, special fund organizers can not sue
AF on any matter.

7. Exemptions

Any exemption from the guidelines listed in this article concerning a
special fund will have to be approved by 2/3 GB members. The Executive
Committee (including Chair, Vice Chair and Secretary) have the final
veto rights to overturn such exemptions.

Add'l info
The resolution on subfund was passed in 1999.  When I implemented in in
late 2000 and early 2001,  we found a lot of problems with it.  Some
basic problems:

1. Not covering investment loss
2. Not sure about fund raising and operation cost -- much bigger than
that GB thought
3. Some hidden scholarship(I will explain it below)

Original concern is that with each departmental subfund setting up,
nobody would donate to the general fund.  So it was set up orginally
that a subfund must give a percentage to the general fund.  By 1999,
to encourage subfunds,  a new resolution was set up, which waives the
initial overhead -- which is not applied to 875 fund.

See details changes of this revision below:

RESOLUTION: GBR-2004010 Guidelines for the USTCAF Goodwill Fellowships (2)

Resolution
GBR-2004010

Title
Guidelines for the USTCAF Goodwill Fellowships (2)

Content
Guidelines for the USTCAF Goodwill Fellowships
March 20, 2004

(Note: AF is a shorthand name for USTC Alumni Foundation (USTCAF); GB stands for the governing board of USTCAF. The usage of AF or GB is exclusive in this article; no other interpretation is acceptable.)

0. This resolution replaces GBR-1999-9-1 and GBR-2000-3-1.

1. Background Information:

AF Goodwill Scholarship was set up in 1999.  Each year, the Scholarship awards about 75 students of three tiers, $100, $200 and $300.  The general Goodwill subfund spent about $15K a year.  Other than first two years,  the spending was way above the total of donations to the subfund each year.  In 2002 and 2003, donations to the general Goodwill subfund were below $2K.  Without a revision and an effective fund raising, the scholarship can last only one more year.

2. Revision Principle:

(1) $100 and $200 Goodwill Scholarship awards are too low. 
(2) AF Goodwill Awards amount about 4 percent of Goodwill-type scholarships in USTC,  offered by the Chinese Government and local corporations.  But it still requires relative heavy work for USTC staff in processing application.
(3) Goodwill Scholarship needs more materials for its fund raising.  AF needs to collect letters, photos, articles, and other info from applicants in fund raising.
(4) After Goodwill Scholarship, USTC changed its BS degree requirement from 5 years to 4 years.
(5) Some procedures specified in previous two resolutions are not practical, as shown after the resolutions were excused, and need to be corrected.

3. The Goal:

To provide financial assistance to USTC students who need financial help in order to complete her/his degree at USTC. Students are selected based on the following criteria:

(1) Financial need. (2) Academic standing.

In particular, higher priority will be given to female students from rural area.

 

4. The Procedure:

(1) New Students.

The fellowships are awarded annually to approximately 20 new students with the amount of $300 each.  The students are initially selected by USTC and approved by GB, based on their financial need, academic standing and availability of other financial aids. The first year AF Goodwill award  recipients are not guaranteed to receive it again.

(2) Later Year Students.

a) The new students who received AF Goodwill are supposed to send GB at least an application letter stating his/her financial situation, academic standing, determination on academic achievement, and willingness to sponsor students too in future, etc.  Other
materials, such as personal photo, family photo, activities photo, publications and articles, are encouraged too.  The application must be received no later than March 15th the second year.

b) All current and past Goodwill Scholarship students may submit such information at any time.  Other USTC students may submit such an application too.

c) The application will be displayed on AF webpage for alumni and other potential sponsors to view (however, the access of this type of webpages from USTC is blocked.)

d) In general,  if one selects a student, he or she would be called an AF Goodwill Sponsor.  A sponsor is supposed to make donations of $300 a year for three years, or one  time donation of $900.  The student would receive $300 through AF, after the award is approved by GB and USTC.

e) A second year student may no longer receive Good Scholarship after the first year Goodwill award,  if he or she did not get a sponsor.

g) In general,  the general Goodwill Fund will not be used to award the second and later year students, except for unusual circumstances.

 

5. Responsibilities of USTC

It is the responsibility of USTC to make public the selection criteria of this award to all eligible candidates. It is the responsibility of USTC to submit a comprehensive list of candidates to GB in time for it to make the necessary decisions. It is the responsibility
of USTC to distribute the award money and certificates to awardees when an official AF representative were not able to be on site. All eligible candidates should contact USTC for issues regarding nomination. AF welcomes comments and feedback from candidates or any other students but also make it known that the official USTC's nomination list will the only valid one for the selection decision process. AF is not liable for any dispute due to failure of USTC to comply with its above mentioned responsibilities.

GB realizes that the standards and information used in the selection process as provided may not be the best or complete but will assume no liability for such and will reserve the right to drop any candidate based on its best judgements.

6. Status of awardees:

The recipient of AF's awards should bear high moral and merit standards. If an awardee is found to have serious misconduct, such as cheating on grades, forging merit documents, or participating in criminal activities, AF reserves the right to revoke the certificate of the awardee, to publicize and notify concerned parties, or to seek further legal actions if applicable. The revoked awardee will be permanently banned from receiving any future AF awards or joining the GB. The decision to revoke an award has to be approved by 2/3 majority of GB members.

7. Bill of conflicts
