14 Del. Admin. Code § 1219-5.0 - Awards

5.1 One scholarship will be awarded each year to an applicant who meets the requirements of Section 3.0 of this regulation based on the applicant's academic achievement, community service, participation in extracurricular activities, and promise of academic success in college. If several applicants are determined to be equally qualified for an Award, DHEO will consider their financial need.

5.2 To determine an applicant's financial need for the purpose of the B. Bradford Barnes Memorial Scholarship, DHEO will consider the applicant's EFC; the expense of attending the University of Delaware; and the applicant's eligibility for Pell grants and other federal, state, or private grant assistance. For the purpose of this regulation, EFC means the Expected Family Contribution, which is the number that is calculated using the financial information an applicant provides on the applicant's Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) to determine the applicant's eligibility for federal student aid.

5.3 An Award shall be used for, and not in excess of, tuition, required fees, room, board, and books at the University of Delaware.

5.4 An Award is renewable within the limits of the appropriations for the B. Bradford Barnes Memorial Scholarship Program.

5.5 To be eligible to renew an Award, a student shall update the student's enrollment information on the Student Account Access Site; meet the academic progress standards set by DHEO and communicated in writing to the student at the time the initial Award is granted; and continue to be enrolled full-time at the University of Delaware, successfully completing coursework according to the standards of the University of Delaware, and eligible to continue to receive financial aid.

5.6 A student shall not receive more than 4 annual Awards.
