SCHOLARSHIPS The list below represents those scholarship awards submitted by seniors when asked to do so by the end of April. We have also listed seniors as LIFE Scholarship Qualifiers who had a 4.096 or better GPA at the end of first semester and who currently rank in the top 30% of the class, along with seniors who have a 3.0 or better GPA and have met the SAT or ACT requirement for the LIFE Scholarship. However, final eligibility for the LIFE Scholarship based solely on top 30% ranking will not be determined until the end of the school year. Students who have a 3.0 GPA or higher upon high school graduation and do not qualify for the LIFE Scholarship will earn the HOPE Scholarship. We are pleased to list seniors who currently have a 3.0 or higher (at the end of first semester) who do not fall into the LIFE Scholarship category as HOPE Scholarship Qualifiers. A few additional seniors may qualify for the LIFE or HOPE Scholarship after graduation. The designation of Palmetto Fellows, LIFE, or HOPE recipients on this program or in the media is preliminary, based on information provided by the high schools at the time of this publication, and is subject to final confirmation and approval by the eligible higher education institution and/or the South Carolina Commission on Higher Education.
