50th Year Celebration Scholarships at Schiller International University
Online students at Schiller International University can qualify for a scholarship based on academic merit. These $2,000 or $3,000 awards are offered to new students enrolling in a full-time program after September 30, 2013. The scholarships are awarded for one term, and may be automatically renewed for one further term based on the awardee’s academic performance.
Application Requirements – 50th Year Scholarship
Newly-enrolled online degree students can apply for an academic scholarship. Applicants recommended by the scholarship committee for an award will receive $2,000 if their GPA at their previous institution was 2.0 - 2.59, or $3,000 if their GPA was 2.6 or higher.
Applicants must:
- Enroll in a qualifying degree program after Sept. 30, 2013
- Carry at least 12 credits per term*
- Submit their official high school or college transcripts with their scholarship application
- After receiving one term of scholarship support, the student’s scholarship may be renewed for an additional term provided he or she completed the prior term with a minimum GPA of 2.3 ($2,000 awardees) or 2.6 ($3,000 awardees).
Additional Terms and Conditions
- Scholarship awards are recommended by the Scholarship Committee, but are subject to final approval by the CFO or VP of Compliance.
- Schiller International University reserves the right to change or discontinue scholarship offerings without notice at any time.
- *Term credit requirements: to qualify for scholarships, students must enroll in a minimum of 12 credit hours for each term. If a student is unable to attend 12 hours in a semester due to transfer credits (course availability), the scholarship will be awarded after the completion of 12 hours. A scholarship awardee who withdraws within a term for any reason other than course availability due to transfer credits will forfeit the scholarship for that respective term and will not be considered in the future for a 50th Year Celebration Scholarship.
