S.D. Codified Laws § 13-55-71

Current through the 2024 Legislative Session

Section 13-55-71 - Maintenance of eligibility for critical teaching needs scholarship

In order to maintain eligibility for the critical teaching needs scholarship program, a student shall:

(1) Maintain a cumulative 2.8 grade point average on a 4.0 scale. The student shall complete consecutive fall and spring terms in order to remain eligible for continuation of the scholarship program from term to term; and

(2) Maintain full-time status, or demonstrate continued satisfactory progress toward degree completion within the scholarship funding period.

If factors beyond the control of a student who has been awarded a critical teaching needs scholarship prevent the student from meeting any of the requirements in subdivisions (1) and (2), the Critical Teaching Needs Scholarship Board may temporarily waive the requirements of those subdivisions. The board may rescind a scholarship award if the student does not maintain eligibility as prescribed in those subdivisions.
