Students
who are eligible to receive HOPE as entering freshmen may receive
payment through the quarter that they have attempted (not earned)
at least 30 semester or 45 quarter hours. However, all HOPE
Scholarship recipients must have a grade point average of at
least a 3.0 at the end of every Spring quarter in order to continue
their eligibility, except for freshmen enrolled for less than
12 credit hours for each of their first three college quarters.
Freshmen recipients who enroll for less than 12 credit hours
for each of their first three college quarters must have a cumulative
grade point average of at least a 3.0 at the end of their third
quarter in order to continue their eligibility.
All attempted hours and corresponding grades as shown on official
transcripts are counted toward the HOPE cumulative grade point
average, including Learning Support study. Additionally, withdrawals
are counted as attempted hours even if there is no academic
penalty. Any college degree credit hours attempted or earned
before high school graduation and hours exempted by examination
do not count as hours attempted and are not included when calculating
the HOPE cumulative grade point average. |

If
you have a HOPE cumulative grade point average of at least a
3.0 by the end of the quarter in which you attempted 30 semester
or 45 quarter hours, you may renew your scholarship for 31 through
60 semester hours or 46 through 90 quarter hours attempted. |
| C. |
If
you have earned a HOPE cumulative grade point average of at
least a 3.0 by the end of the quarter you attempted 60 semester
or 90 quarter hours, you may renew your scholarship for 61 through
90 semester hours or 91 through 135 quarter hours attempted. |
| D. |
If
you have earned a HOPE cumulative grade point average of at
least a 3.0 by the end of the quarter in which you attempted
90 semester or 135 quarter hours, you may renew your scholarship
for 91 through 127 semester hours or 136 through 190 quarter
hours attempted. However, the total cumulative number of credit
hours for which you can receive payment from any combination
of the HOPE Scholarship, HOPE Grant, and Accel programs is 127
semester hours or 190 quarter hours. |
| E. |
If
you are enrolled in a specific undergraduate degree program
which is designed to be a five-year program, you may renew your
scholarship for a total of 150 semester hours or 225 quarter
hours attempted or the number of hours required by the program,
whichever is less. However, the total cumulative number of credit
hours for which you can receive payment from any combination
of the HOPE Scholarship, HOPE Grant, and Accel programs is 150
semester hours or 225 quarter hours or the number of hours required
by the program, whichever is less. |
