- Good to know
- Current 2026–27 Bulletin says scholarships renew with undergraduate status and continuous full-time enrollment, with eight-semester/degree cap and approved prorated final-semester option. Approved one-semester leave holds funding; reinstatement after longer leave is not guaranteed. Transfer to another institution/permanent separation ends funding. No numeric entry GPA floor or universal numeric renewal GPA is stated.
