Basic Rules for Maintaining Eligibility
- If you do not earn a 3.3 semester GPA you may be placed on probationary status; however, if you earn a semester GPA lower than a 3.3 for a second semester you will forfeit the scholarship.
- You must renew the scholarship each semester, enrolling in Fall and Spring semesters continuously unless an approved leave of absence is obtained. As the Spring/Winter 2024 semester marks the end of 2019 recipient eligibility, new or extended leave of absence requests cannot be approved.
- The scholarship will expire five years from the date of high school graduation and may be utilized for four semesters, 60 credits, or completion of a bachelor’s degree, whichever comes first. Please note: only credits earned during semesters in which you received a scholarship payment are counted towards the 60 credits. If you do not provide evidence of meeting the renewal requirements by the deadlines (see Deadline tab), you will forfeit the scholarship.
Deadlines for Renewal and Payment Requests
All documentation must be postmarked by the following dates:
- February 1 for Spring/Winter Semester (if you are attending BYU)
You are strongly encouraged to submit the required documentation as soon as possible. Payment processing takes 2-3 weeks after all required documents have been received. In some cases, you may not receive the award payment until after tuition is due. In such cases, it is your responsibility to comply with and meet any tuition payment deadlines.
Proof of enrollment in at least 12 credit hours must include the following:
- your name
- the titles of enrolled courses
- the semester you will attend (for example “Spring 2024”)
- the name of the college/university where you are enrolled
- your student college/university ID # (may be handwritten)
- total number of credit hours enrolled
Note: BYU Independent Study and wait-listed courses do not count towards meeting the minimum credit hour requirement.
You must successfully complete at least 12 credits, earning a 3.3 semester GPA or higher. A proof of completion document must include the following:
- your name
- the semester attended (for example “Fall 2023”)
