Scholarship Maintenance
Students receiving scholarships from Gardner-Webb are expected to achieve a minimum cumulative institutional grade point average (GPA) to retain any scholarships. Scholarship progress is reviewed at the end of the semester. The GPA requirement for each scholarship is listed below. If your institutional GPA is below the required minimum, you may be placed on Scholarship Probation. You will be eligible to receive your scholarship while on probation; however, if at the end of the term you have not achieved the required GPA, your scholarship may be rescinded for the next semester.
Ignite Excellence* and Honors Scholarship recipients must maintain an institutional grade point average (GPA) of 3.5 at the end of each academic year, reside on campus, and be enrolled full-time.
