Which semester does each application period apply to?
Each application period is for enrollment in the following semester. For example, if you apply during the May application period, your student’s enrollment and funding would begin in the fall semester, rather than the semester currently in progress.
Funding Timing
Applications submitted during the first two application periods are eligible for funding for the full year.
- Applications submitted during the last two application periods are eligible for funding for the second half of the year only.
The application period in which you apply determines when your student’s scholarship enrollment and funding can begin.
Appeals
Before submitting an appeal, you must first request an appeal through Customer Support.
Please keep the following timelines in mind:- You have 60 days from the close of the application cycle in which you applied to initiate an appeal.
- After submitting your appeal, a confirmation notice will appear in the upper-right corner of your screen on your parent dashbaord.
- All submitted appeals have a 30-day review window.
400% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL)
A family’s income will not factor into the prioritization of applicants for enrollment in the Fall Semester. Only applicants who have a household income level at or below 400% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL) will be considered for enrollment in the Spring Semester in accordance with the Promise Scholarship Act. This process is repeated each program year for each Fall and Spring application period.
If you have additional questions or concerns regarding your application or appeal, please contact Customer Support for assistance.
