If our member numbers exceed the number of spots available, SCA may not be able to include an offer to accept SCA AmeriCorps with your position offer. Eligibility for SCA AmeriCorps is not a guarantee of placement in the SCA AmeriCorps program or guarantee of an AmeriCorps Education Award.". Needs human confirmation.
