All recipients must be full-time each semester and working toward an undergraduate degree.

The SC Jr Golf Scholarship and The Terry Florence Scholarships and The Jackie Seawell Scholarship may be renewable for up to (3) three consecutive additional years of undergraduate work (four years total), or until a bachelor`s degree is awarded, whichever is earlier. Current recipients will receive information on the renewal process from CSA. The scholarship will be renewed based on:
(a) availability of funds;
(b) student remains in good standing with the institution;
(c) student maintains the required minimum cumulative GPA;
(d) student is enrolled full time, and,
(e) student applies by the deadline for renewal of the scholarship.

Current recipients who fail to comply with requirements B, D, and E may lose their scholarship permanently. If a scholarship is renewed for an academic year and any semester is not used within that year then it is forfeited. A GPA falling below the required minimum of 2.75 on a 4.0 scale at the end of ANY semester may result in a decision not to honor the award for the subsequent semester. If this is the decision, then the award is terminated on a permanent basis and the student will not be allowed to apply for renewal at any time in the future. However, if a decision is made to honor the award and it is paid for the subsequent semester, then the student will be allowed to apply for consideration of renewal provided the GPA is at the required level at the end of the semester in question. Once a scholarship goes into effect, grade reports will be required at the end of the Fall semester. The grade report must include the name of the student, name of the college and the student`s social security or identification number. It is the responsibility of the recipient to request the grade report. An official transcript will be required at the end of the Spring semester.
