The scholarship will be used to pay for tuition, textbooks, supplies, and other fees included in the cost of education for eligible students. All scholarships are considered part of a student's financial aid package and will be credited toward current charges on the student's account. To be eligible for the scholarship(s), students must meet the following criteria: ? Must be a full-time student enrolled in the University. ? Must maintain a 3.0 GPA. ?
