I understand that Promise for Adults is a last-dollar scholarship. If I am eligible, the Promise will cover my tuition after grants and scholarships are applied.
I understand that Promise for Adults does not cover books, program fees, and equipment and that I must pay for these using financial aid or another method of payment.
I understand that to meet the final eligibility requirements for the program I must be enrolled in at least 9 college-level credits on the financial aid census date.
I understand that if I am not enrolled in at least 9 credits on the financial aid census date that I will not be eligible for Promise and will need to pay my tuition.
I understand that to continue in the Promise for Adults I must: enroll in at least 9 college-level credits each Fall and Spring semester, complete a FAFSA annually and remain income eligible, complete 67% of the credits I attempt each semester, and earn a 2.0 GPA or higher each semester.
I understand that if I have federal student loans in default I must complete additional requirements in order to remain Promise eligible, in addition to all of the academic requirements outlined above.
I understand that if I pursue a technical diploma I have up to 4 semesters of Promise funding. If I pursue an associates degree, I have up to 7 semesters of Promise funding. If I choose to change programs, I will not be given additional time to complete.
I understand that Promise funding ends when I complete my program declared on this application - even if that graduation is before the 4 or 7 semester funding limit and will not cover any additional academic programs.
