USA Institutional Scholarship Earn Back Program
At the 澳门最准真正最准资料大全, we鈥檙e committed to your success and want to help you achieve your educational goals. If you have a renewable scholarship and don鈥檛 meet the academic standards by the end of the academic year, your scholarship will not be renewed. But don鈥檛 worry鈥攖here鈥檚 a way to earn it back.
What You Need to Know:
- To keep your scholarship, you must earn at least 30 credit hours and meet the required cumulative GPA* by the end of the academic year.
- If you don鈥檛 meet these requirements, you鈥檒l be notified via your university email.
- You can take summer courses at USA (at your own expense) to try and meet the criteria.
- If you still don鈥檛 meet the standards after summer, you can join the USA Institutional Scholarship Earn Back Program.
About the Earn Back Program:
This program gives you a probationary year with a required workshop, one-on-one advising, and support to help you complete the required credit hours or improve your GPA. Once you are back in good standing, your award will be reinstated.
Steps to Participate:
- Apply: Complete the Earn Back application in the JagSPOT system. The application is open until the last day of late registration (drop/add) for the Fall term.
- Enroll: After approval, enroll in the JagSuccess workshop through Student Academic Success.
- Meet Requirements: Complete the Earn Back program, earn 30 credit hours, and attain the required GPA* by the end of the academic year.
You must apply for the program in the semester following the loss of your scholarship.
If eligible, you can continue in the program as long as there鈥檚 time left on your
scholarship (semesters in the Earn Back Program count against your eligible semesters).
However, you need to reapply each year.
At the end of the year, we鈥檒l review your progress. If you鈥檝e successfully completed the program and met the academic standards, your scholarship may be reinstated.
Important Notes:
- Out-of-state residents can participate in the Earn Back program, but they鈥檒l only be eligible to earn back the scholarship portion of their award. The in-state tuition rate will change to the out-of-state rate and can鈥檛 be reinstated.
- Continuous enrollment at USA is required. If you voluntarily forfeited your scholarship, you can鈥檛 participate in this program.
- If there were extenuating circumstances, beyond your control, that kept you from meeting your scholarship renewal requirements, you may be eligible to appeal the loss of your scholarship.
