- Please note you must renew the scholarship by the deadline of July 6, 2018, or you will lose your scholarship
- Good news – you may renew your scholarship even if your GPA is under 3.0! You will only lose your award if your GPA falls below 2.0 for more than two terms. If your GPA is under a 2.5 – we do require that you work with your Scholar Advisor to develop a plan to bring it up.
- To renew, you will need:
- Your major, cumulative GPA, and credits earned to date;
- A copy of your unofficial college transcript; and
- For your immigration status:
- If you have DACA or TPS – your EAD number and the expiration date;
- If you are in the process of renewing your DACA or TPS status – your renewal application receipt number and the date of the receipt; (If you are facing financial hardship and do not have the resources to pay for the DACA renewal fee, you can apply to TheDream.US for funds for your payment. To find out if you are eligible and to apply go to:https://aim.applyists.net/DREAM-USCIS
- If you have never applied for DACA and you were not able to do so before it was rescinded – you will need to declare under penalty of perjury that you meet the DACA eligibility criteria and that you will apply for lawful status as soon as you are legally able to do so. You can review the criteria here: USCIS DACA Eligibility Criteria
Start getting this information ready now so you can easily renew your scholarship when you receive the email from ISTS!
