Maintaining an Academic Scholarship:
If you were eligible for an academic scholarship your freshman year, no additional forms are needed to sustain the scholarship; however, the following stipulations must be adhered to.
- To be considered within good academic standing, students must attain a cumulative grade point average of 3.0 by the end of their freshman year and maintain this mark throughout their academic career at Saint Francis University. In the event that a student does not meet/sustain the required grade point average of 3.0, a letter of appeal must be presented to the Director of Financial Aid.
- To maintain an Academic Scholarship and to continue receiving Financial Aid, students must maintain Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP). For SAP requirements, please view the Satisfactory Academic Progress link on the homepage.
- To maintain an Academic Scholarship, unless authorized by Residence Life, students must either live on campus or commute from home.
