Return ReferencePart I, Line 2:ReturnReference
ExplanationSchedule I, Part I, Line 2: The college provides scholarships to students enrolled in its programs. Scholarships are awarded based upon student acheivements in academics, performing arts, and athletics. To be considered for scholarship assistance, students must apply for admission and submit academic transcripts of prior education work, test scores (ACT/SAT), and an application for the scholarship program. Some scholarships require additional recommendations or certifications by third parties. Academic progress of scholarship recipients is monitored, and recipients must earn both a minimum amount of college credits and a minimum GPA each semester in order to maintain eligibility. The Seed Project Grant was established to foster and develop an entrepreneurial spirit amongst Covenant College students and to create an opportunity for the students to develop real ideas and put them into action. Business plans are submitted by students for initial review by a committee of Covenant College faculty, staff, alumni, and other friends of the college. Once the business plan earns approval, the plan is presented to an independent panel of judges. The college awards the Seed Project Grant after the independent panel declares a winning idea. Recipients provide receipts to demonstrate that funds were used for legitimate and appropriate business expenses, and the College follows up with recipients at six month intervals following the award until the funds are depleted.Explanation
