Requirements For Scholarships Qualification

• Scholarships are available to students of any nationality who have fulfilled all the admission requirements.
• The eligibility criteria for scholarships state that they are granted to students enrolled as full-time students, meaning they are taking four or more academic courses per semester. However, for scholarships based on financial hardship or special needs, the number of required academic courses may vary depending on the circumstances. In these cases, a minimum of four academic courses is generally suggested, but exceptions can be made on a case-by-case basis. It is important to note that scholarships are only applicable to credit-bearing courses.
• Students must maintain the required cumulative grade point average (CGPA) to continue receiving their scholarship. In the case of special needs scholarships, the necessary CGPA to continue the scholarship will be evaluated individually.
• Students have the option to apply for scholarships in consecutive years. However, the scholarships can only be used for two consecutive semesters, specifically the Fall and Spring semesters. Summer semesters are not eligible for scholarship coverage.
• Scholarships can only be applied towards the current tuition fees.
• You can apply for multiple scholarships if you meet the eligibility criteria. If a student qualifies for more than one reduction, scholarship, or discount, they can select the benefit with the greatest value.
• To continue receiving and retaining your scholarship, promptly paying any remaining fees, including tuition and housing costs, is necessary.
