Renewability
This scholarship will automatically renew for the normal period of years required to complete the recipient’s chosen educational program (up to a maximum of 4 years) provided that the recipient makes adequate progress toward completing his or her education, remains in good academic standing with a minimum GPA of 2.5, and has continued financial need. Students must submit their transcript and tuition bill EACH SEMESTER for renewal of the award. Should the GPA requirement not be met, the student will be placed on probation. Failure to regain the required GPA after one academic semester will result in the loss of the scholarship.
