Board of Trustees Scholarships

Purpose

Recommendations for athletic scholarships must be initiated by coaches or the athletic director.

The value of the athletic scholarship shall be either six credit hours or 12 credit hours at the discretion of the Scholarship Committee.

Renewal of Athletic Scholarships

Renewal of scholarship for the second and ensuing semesters shall be contingent upon the following criteria:

• Athlete meets National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) eligibility.
