Is there a minimum GPA or hourly requirement?
Yes, a minimum GPA of 2.0 and enrollment in at least six hours is required to apply for a scholarship. However, all scholarships have criteria that were set up by the benefactor detailing what is required by a student in order to be awarded the scholarship. The student is applying for all dual credit scholarships by completing the Amarillo College Dual Credit Scholarship Application.
Should I apply for specific awards?
By using the appropriate application, you will be reviewed for any and all available awards for that specific purpose. By filling out the Dual Credit Scholarship application you will be reviewed for any and all available Dual Credit scholarships. By completing the Amarillo College Foundation General Scholarship application you will be reviewed for any and all available scholarships as an academic student. By completing the Sybil B Harrington Scholarship application you will be reviewed for the Sybil B Harrington Scholarships at Amarillo College and at Texas 4 year schools.
Do you adhere firmly to the application deadline?
The deadline for the Dual Credit Scholarships will be the date payment arrangements are required.
I received a scholarship, but the money has not been applied to my account. What should I do?
Dual Credit Scholarship awards are generally applied to charges for tuition, fees and required supplies directly through the business office. Any remaining balance is the responsibility of the student. Any credit balance will be forfeited and returned to the Foundation. Students will need to check with the business office to see if any payments are still due following their scholarship award.
