单选题

In Borkland, university scholarship stipends worth ＄ 4.2 million were unclaimed last year because several scholarship programs attracted no applicants who met the programs' qualifying criteria．This is an egregious waste of funds in a country where thousands of promising students each year cannot afford tuition． Qualifying criteria for those scholarships, therefore, should be revised． Which of the following, if true about Borkland, most strongly supports the conclusion drawn above？

A、 Many scholarships are unclaimed not because their qualifying criteria are too restrictive but because the scholarship programs rarely announce the scholarships' availability．
B、 Because of inflation, the stipends offered by certain scholarship programs now appear less attractive to potential applicants than they did when they were first offered．
C、 A significant number of scholarship programs awarded all of their available scholarship stipends last year, yet most of those programs have very restrictive qualifying criteria
D、 Certain scholarship programs accept applications only from students enrolled in specific major fields of study, but Borkland's universities no longer offer courses in the fields specified by many of those programs
E、 Several scholarship programs have found it impossible to revise their qualifying criteria without engaging in lengthy and costly legal proceedings．
