EDT Update: Amended EDT and Dependant/Spouse Scholarship Process

Thank you for your patience as we work to resume processing EDT and Dependant/Spouse Scholarship applications following the MRU cybersecurity incident that occurred on June 17.

This incident affected the MRSA EDT and Dependant/Spouse Scholarship application database (ApplyEDT). Specifically, we have been unable to input or update application data since the incident. As a result, we needed to make several adjustments to our process to facilitate reimbursements. Please review the EDT Guide and FAQ for general information about EDT funding.

Please review the following instructions carefully for all EDT and Dependant/Spouse Scholarship applications.

Dependant/Spouse Scholarships 
will be processed as soon as possible.

  • No action is required by members who have already submitted these applications.
  • Please continue to use the Dependant/Spouse Scholarship Google form for Summer applications until the August 31, 2026 deadline.
