General Information
The Honors Scholarship (now $1,400 for
the academic year for full-time students)
is automatically renewable for the next academic
year for those who have maintained at least a 3.5
cumulative IUSB GPA and have maintained a ratio of Honors coursework
to total coursework of at least 1 to 7 or have improved their ratio of Honors
coursework to total coursework from the previous semester. The same criteria apply to the Alumni
Association Scholarship, which represents
yet another type of Honors Scholarship. (Note that the "Honors Scholarship"
mentioned here differs from the "Honors Advisory Committee
Scholarship" that the Honors Advisory Committee allocates in February
or March each year.)
The criteria for retaining the Honors Program Scholarship include the
following:
-
Maintenance of a 3.5 cumulative IUSB
GPA
and
- Maintenance of a ratio of Honors coursework to total coursework
of at least 1 to 7
or
- Improving one's ratio of Honors coursework to total
coursework from the previous semester.
Failure to fulfill the conditions for the initial receipt of the Honors
Scholarship or any of the conditions for subsequent renewals of the scholarship
may result in the forfeiture of the scholarship and the cancellation of the
financial credit previously applied to the students' accounts.
The Honors Program Scholarships are meant to subsidize students' completion
of the Honors Program certificate. Receipt of any type of IU South Bend Honors
Scholarship therefore ethically obligates all scholarship holders to make a
good-faith effort to earn the Honors Program certificate if they complete their
baccalaureate degrees at Indiana University South Bend.
