This Trapper notification is simply NWC’s method to communicate to you the anticipated amount of NWC Private Donor scholarship you may receive at a later date. If you receive a Private Donor award announcement in the spring or summer, this dollar amount will be removed from your application. The Private Donor announcement will replace this Trapper level.
