Current Student Scholarships

Many of the Freshmen Student Scholarships are renewable every year based on specified GPA requirements if they are performance-based. Need-based scholarships may be renewable every year based on federal and institutional requirements and family financial status.

Performance Scholarships for Returning Students
This program is for students who did not qualify for a performance award upon acceptance to the college. Once enrolled, a student's GPA is reviewed each year. If the student has at least a 2.5 CGPA, he or she will be eligible for a performance scholarship. The scholarship is $3,500 for resident students and $2,500 for commuting students. It is renewable for three years if the student maintains a 2.5 CGPA and remains enrolled full-time.
