The filing describes an application process for the Ammon Recovery Scholars Program. Applicants needed to be in addiction recovery for at least six months and could pursue certificate or training programs, vocational or trade school, two-year college, or a four-year university. People who already had a bachelor’s degree were ineligible. The filing also listed household income limits, with case-by-case consideration of extenuating circumstances. Recipients were required to be public advocates for recovery; their recovery identity would not be confidential or anonymous. Employees, advisory council members, and board members of the foundation or Ammon Labs were ineligible, as were certain children in their households.

The filing called for an application, transcripts if currently enrolled or an acceptance letter or program description if not, academic and personal recommendation letters, government identification, and financial verification. These are historical filing instructions, not current application guidance, because the return is marked final.
