2026-2027 Terms and Conditions for Transfer Admissions Scholarship Awards

You have been awarded one of the following USF scholarships due to your high academic achievement thus far in your college career and admission to USF. 

• Frank H. Spain & Betty E. Gillies Community College
• Phi Theta Kappa

If the total amount of aid you receive from federal, state, and institutional sources, in addition to this scholarship, exceeds the estimated total cost of attendance (tuition, fees, room and board, books, transportation, and miscellaneous expenses), some portion of your aid will be reduced in order that the total will not exceed the cost of attendance. 

These scholarships are awarded for up to four (4) consecutive semesters (fall/spring only) in two (2) academic years of undergraduate coursework or receipt of a bachelor鈥檚 degree, provided that renewal requirements are met. Recipients must enroll in the first fall semester of their admission, or the scholarship is forfeited.

---

Your scholarship will pay for up to four (4) consecutive full-time semesters (fall and spring semesters only) or upon receipt of your bachelor鈥檚 degree. 

• For your scholarship to be paid, you must register as a full-time (minimum 12 undergraduate USF credit hours) degree-seeking undergraduate student, in each term the funds are received, excluding summer.
• Enrolling in the minimum number of credit hours (12 credits per fall and spring semester) is not sufficient to renew your scholarship(s), see Renewal Requirements.
  • The full-time requirement may include graduate course(s) if you are enrolled in a degree program that includes graduate level coursework (e.g. Honors College, Architecture, College of Medicine, etc.); however your scholarship may not cover the entire graduate course fees as awards are specific to undergraduate charges
  • If you reach the graduate level of an accelerated degree program that leads to a Master鈥檚 degree, you will be required to provide documentation from your academic advisor to the Office of Financial Aid to verify your status as a graduate student in an accelerated program in order to be paid the remaining term(s).
  • All scholarship recipients participating in Study Abroad experiences must complete the Study Abroad Enrollment Contract (SAE) prior to their departure to be reviewed for payment eligibility.  Courses must count towards your unsatisfied degree major requirements.
  • Exceptions to the full-time requirement may also be made for graduating seniors who complete the Undergraduate Admissions Scholarships: Less than Full-time Graduating Seniors (USGR) form.
• Scholarships are disbursed after the end of the drop/add period each semester as a payment to your student account.
• Scholarships are disbursed after the end of the drop/add period each semester as a payment to your student account.
• International students must provide documentation to the Office of International Services in order to document/confirm their citizenship/visa status. If documentation is not received, the scholarship(s) will be cancelled.

---

You must earn 30 USF credit hours during each academic year (fall/spring/summer), maintain a minimum 3.0 GPA for USF coursework, and be paid in consecutive semesters (fall/spring). 

• Only USF credit hours will count towards the renewal requirement.
• Enrollment at another school will not count for renewal purposes. Exceptions may be made for USF sponsored study abroad, internships, and co-operative education programs via an Undergraduate Scholarship Petition if needed to meet renewal requirements.
• Grade forgiveness/repeating courses may help your GPA, but will reduce your earned hours required for renewal.
• Advanced Placement credits, dual enrollment, or transfer credits from other colleges/universities are not considered toward your annual earned hour renewal requirement.
• At the end of an academic year (fall/spring/summer) if you fail to meet the scholarship renewal requirements you forfeit the scholarship for any subsequent terms.

---

Academic performance will be evaluated for renewal at the end of each spring semester and you will be notified of the result by email. 

• If you meet the renewal criteria at the end of the spring, your scholarship will automatically renew for the following academic year or until you have received your degree or (4) semesters, whichever comes first.
• If you do not meet the requirements at the end of spring, you may use the summer term to meet the academic renewal requirements.
  • Your grades and/or earned hours may be changed after a renewal evaluation has occurred due to missing grades, grade corrections, grade replacement, etc.
  • Re-evaluation of your renewal eligibility will occur after your academic history is updated and/or after the end of the summer term.
• If you are not paid in consecutive semesters (fall/spring), but you earn a minimum of 30 USF credit hours and maintain a 3.0 USF GPA by the end of the summer semester then you will forfeit any unpaid semester(s).  
• If you are notified that you do not meet the academic renewal requirements, you may submit an Undergraduate Scholarship Petition if:
  • You had a documented illness or emergency beyond your control during the academic year that affected your academic performance.
  • You participated in USF sponsored study abroad, internship or co-operative education program with appropriate documentation.
  • Any suspension or grades due to academic dishonesty resulting in non-compliance for scholarship renewal will not be considered in the appeal process
