1. All gift aid received by the awardee, including a university
scholarship or grant, cannot exceed the cost of full tuition for
up to 16 credits per semester, plus book charges of up to $500
per semester, plus General Fees. When total gift aid is more
than the costs mentioned above, the university scholarship or
grant is reduced until gift aid equals the costs. All gift aid is
added in the following order: external scholarships, merit aid,
and then need-based aid. Should the external scholarships and
merit-aid portions exceed the tuition, books and fees limit,
boarding students may include the minimum costs of room and
board in the calculation.
Gift aid, for the purpose of this policy, is defined as
a. Any Andrews funds such as, but not limited to Andrews Gift,
named scholarships, or honors scholarships.
b. Any external aid received by the student for the purpose of
school-related expenses such as, but not limited to, State
grants, Federal grants, private scholarship grants, or denominational
educational allowance.
2. No cash amount is paid directly to the student, nor may any
funds be transferred to any other student’s account.
3. The length of Andrews Partnership Scholarship is nine (9)
semesters. Continuing students under the scholarship plan prior
to 2002 may choose to enroll during summer sessions, but
regardless of the amount of credits taken, those sessions count
as one of the nine eligible semesters.
4. Students who withdraw from school for one semester due to illness
or death in the family may petition for one additional
semester on their scholarship. Students who choose to serve in
the Student Missionary program or enroll in the Adventist
Colleges Abroad program also may petition for a one-year
extension. Petitions should be addressed to the Vice President
for Enrollment Management.
5. All President’s Scholarships may be renewed yearly if students
join the Society of Andrews Scholars.
