Missouri S&T Scholarship Reinstatement Policy

Scholarship Reinstatement Policy Effective fall semester 2002, students who lose a renewable university funded scholarship due to not earning the required renewal cumulative grade point average, will have the opportunity to raise their cumulative grade point average at Missouri S&T to the established renewal level and have their university funded scholarship reinstated after the completion of the next academic year (i.e. after the completion of the spring semester).

The reinstated scholarship could be available for the following academic year. The Reinstatement Policy is not available to students who leave Missouri S&T to attend another college of university as a student for a fall or spring semester. It will be the scholarship recipient's responsibility to inform the Student Financial Assistance Office that they meet the renewal cumulative grade point average to have their scholarship reinstated. This notification must be received in writing by the Director of Student Financial Assistance prior to the end of the fourth week of class in the fall semester.

Once the fourth week of classes in the fall semester has passed, a student can not receive scholarship funds retroactive for the current or previous semesters based upon meeting the renewal scholarship grade point requirement. Furthermore all reinstated scholarships funds cannot be applied to pay previous semester(s) fees and student expenses. This policy only applies to general operating (G.O.) university funded scholarships (see list below of awards that fall into this category). Departmental, Alumni, donor (non-general operating), state scholarships and all other awards, will not be affected by this policy. This policy also does not adjust or extend the amount of the scholarship, not the number of semesters the student is eligible to receive the award beyond the initial award.

Definition: G.O. University-funded scholarships include Alumni Grandchildren Scholarship, Alumni Sons/Daughters Scholarship, Alumni Section Scholarship Chancellor's Scholarship, Curator's Scholarship Excellence Scholarship, Excellence II Scholarship Miner Scholarship, Miner II Scholarship Trustees Scholarship, Trustees II Scholarship
