On behalf of the Office of Financial Aid & Scholarships, we would like to congratulate you on a wonderful start to the new academic school year!  As a friendly reminder, all merit scholarship recipients are required to maintain a minimum grade point average (GPA) and successfully complete at least 12+ credits (6+ credits for transfer students) each semester. Since mid-terms are quickly approaching, we have provided you the following list of accessible resources on campus to ensure you successfully meet the terms of your scholarship agreement 

 

●      Arrange a meeting with an academic advisor at the Advising Services Department to discuss success strategies.

●      Utilize Student Support and Tutoring Services for peer and tutoring resources.

●      Visit the Learning Resources Center for learning assistance services.

●      Schedule a one-on-one meeting with your professors to validate you are obtaining the accurate information in lectures and/or labs.

 

At the end of the fall semester, the Merit Scholarship Review Committee will review your academic record and confirm compliance with your scholarship requirements.
