Annual or Renewable Scholarship Options

This is an annual scholarship that lasts for the duration of a full academic year. Students will need to follow guidelines to ensure that they are doing the right thing as keeping grade levels high and being a full-time student to keep the scholarship. This is not a renewable scholarship since this scholarship has duration time of the whole 4 years needed to reach a degree in English and Math. Afterwards if students ensure to pursue more schooling a different scholarship will need to be looked for.
