indicate an accredited institution (“Institution”) for disbursement by

cases where, prior to disbursement, a Winner (i) changes or transfers
to a new Institution, or (ii) cancels plans to attend the institution,
the Winner shall promptly notify Sponsor of such change in their
enrollment at the Institution, which shall be no later than five (5)
business days after such change has been notified to the applicable
