Q: Okay so i ma college student that has been told that I will no longer receive a scholarship do to my CGPA
In the policies laid out for the scholarship it states 'Recipients that are required to achieve a Cumulative Grade Point Average of 2.75 and fail to do so but achieve a minimum Cumulative Grade Point Average of 2.5 are placed on Scholarship probation for the next Financial Aid Year (the 'probationary period').' I currently have a CGPA of 2.64 which is above the required 2.5 for the probationary period, is there anything i can do?
A:
There is not really a way to advise you on your options without being able to review the scholarship documents and the letter or information that you received from the scholarship manager or administrator of the scholarship. Best advice is to communicate with the scholarship program and document your GPA, it could be just a mistake that you got a letter or communication or there could be more to the story.
Also, you may want to consult with an attorney in your area and take to the meeting the scholarship paperwork and any letter that you received related to your current GPA to see if an attorney can assist you.
There is not a way for use to assist you via this online forum.
Good Luck.
