Are there admission or GPA requirements for an alumni student support scholarship?

Students must be admitted to RMU and be registered for a full-time class schedule to apply (including online or independent study courses). Students will also need a minimum 3.0 GPA to be eligible. Those who are selected for a scholarship will be required to maintain satisfactory academic progress toward graduation.

What is the application deadline for the alumni student support scholarship?

No, they are not automatically renewed. Students may be the recipient of an alumni student support scholarship once per calendar year; however, if you are interested in receiving another alumni student support scholarship the following year, you must submit a new application. Scholarships are not automatically renewed.

If you are a Financial Aid recipient, receiving any scholarship will affect your Cost of Attendance (COA), and it is your responsibility to notify the Financial Aid Office if you are selected for an award. Should you be awarded a scholarship from any source (internal or external), take time to send the institution a “Thank You” letter.
