Full-time enrollment must be
maintained in order to remain eligible for scholarships. Full time enrollment
is defined as being registered for 12 or more credits and is determined by your
enrollment status as of 4:30 p.m. on Friday of week 1 of each term.
Initial scholarship reviews and
revisions will be conducted at the end of a student's 2nd full-time academic
year of study.
Students maintaining a cumulative
grade point average (CGPA) of 2.25 to 3.0 at the time of review will receive an
academic scholarship at the same level as initially awarded for the next
academic year.
Students who have achieved a CGPA of
3.01-4.0 at the time of review will receive an increase of $500 to the
scholarship for the next academic year. Scholarship increases in subsequent
years will be $500 if a student maintains a CGPA of 3.01-4.0 as determined at
the end of year review.
A student who has not maintained a
CGPA of 2.25 at the time of review will see the academic scholarship adjusted
as follows: a cumulative CGPA of 2.0 to 2.249 will result in a reduction of
original scholarship by 50% for the next academic year. A CGPA of 1.99 and
below will result in loss of scholarship for the next academic year.
Students who lose eligibility and then
regain a CGPA of 2.0 to 2.249 at the time of review will be awarded 50% of the
original scholarship for the next academic year. Students who lose eligibility
and then regain a CGPA of 2.25-3.0 at the time of review will be awarded 100%
of the original scholarship.
Students who have never received a
scholarship in the past, but who at the time of review have completed full-time
studies in the previous academic year and have achieved a CGPA of 2.5-3.0 will
receive an initial scholarship amount of $6,000 for the next academic year.
Students who have achieved a CGPA of 3.01-4.0 will receive an initial
scholarship of $8,000 for the next academic year. Subsequent adjustments will
be addressed as stated above.
The MSOE Academic Scholarship may be
extended to a fifth full-time year (up to 15 full-time quarters); under no
exception will the scholarship be extended to a sixth year.
Please note that there is a separate MSOE
Presidential Scholarship policy.
Recipients of MSOE Presidential Scholarship can contact the Financial
Aid Office for a copy of this policy.
