Policy Update: Maximum Time Allowed for National Scholars
We made a change to the time National Scholars have to complete their degree while using our scholarship.

In the past, for those who started in a 4-YR college, we required that they complete their degree in 5 years. While most of them will have used their full scholarship award by the end of their fifth year, there are a handful of them who will still have funds remaining.

We have decided that we will allow National Scholars to use those funds for a sixth year, if needed, to complete their degree. 

See the National Scholarship Program Guide for more details.

Scholar Survey Says...
Our Scholars are goal-oriented! A majority (78%) said they are “Very” or “Extremely” confident in maintaining a 2.5 cumulative GPA.
