Scholarship Enrollment and Renewal

WPO 5.08-6 Scholarship Enrollment and Renewal (Op5.08-6)

Enrollment standards

During semesters that students are receiving scholarships, they must be full time (i.e., enrolled in at least 12 credit hours per semester during fall and spring semesters). Scholarship recipients generally need to complete more than 12 credit hours per semester in order to meet renewal criteria and should refer to their scholarship acceptance form for details regarding those criteria.
Unless otherwise stated, scholarships are for the fall and spring semesters only and do not apply to summer tuition or fees.
Scholarship values will not be adjusted based on the cost of course(s) taken by a student.

Renewal standards

Students must meet the renewal criteria outlined in their scholarship acceptance form. These criteria can also be found on the Scholarship Search page.
Students have a full academic year (fall, spring and summer) to meet scholarship renewal criteria.
Students who fail to meet scholarship renewal criteria at the end of one academic year (fall, spring, and summer) will not receive the scholarship for the following academic year.
Transfer hours and GPA (i.e., any hours not completed through the West Plains campus of Missouri State) cannot be counted toward scholarship renewal.
