Award Criteria
“Full-tuition Scholarship” is defined as tuition and fees for one year ($32,280 tuition and fees for Fall 2024/Spring 2025) minus all need-based, gift awards, including Pell Grants, NC NBS, and other state and federal financial aid grants.
Additional scholarships provided by Brevard College are included in the Full-tuition Scholarship. For example, the Full-tuition Scholarship recipient can participate in IWIL, Honors, Drumline, and the Fine Arts, yet they will not receive additional awards.
The Full-tuition Scholarship also replaces the Merit Scholarship, or Fine Arts Scholarship, if applicable. The Full-tuition Scholarship also replaces additional Brevard College financial aid programs, including Early Enrollment Fee Grants, need-based institutional grants, Graduation Grants, and other Scholarship Competition awards. Loans and outside scholarships, including work-study, are not included in the Full-tuition Scholarship calculation.
Brevard College will not consider athletics leadership, ability, participation, or performance as a criterion in the formulation of any financial aid award or financial aid package.
Recipients of the Full-Tuition Scholarship must live on campus as a residential student.
Brevard College will also require Full-tuition Scholarship winners to participate in admissions related events including student panels. The Vice President of Admissions and Financial Aid will check on the academic progress for all Full-tuition Scholarship recipients to ensure that the student is meeting expectations for academic performance and social engagement.
