Hi,

If a scholarship said that it is awarded on the basis of merit, does that mean that it is only based on your academic record? Do you have to be a full-time student still though?

Thanks,
Ann

Merit usually refers to academic achievement and leadership, together.

The scholarship's stipulations will tell you whether you have to be full-time to qualify.

where can you get the full scholarship's stipulations?

This is all I can find in mine by googling:

under [/u][u]Simon B. Woolard Endows Merit Scholarship at NC State University, but this isn't the whole stipulations, is it?

Depends on the specific scholarship and who awards it. Contact financial aid if you want to learn more about who/how you are awarded your scholarships.

did you fill out any paperwork to get the scholarship?

yea, i looked at it, and there is a part that ask if you have filled out the FALSA, but it didn't ask you to input how many credit hours you are going to take.
