“The new Presidential Scholarship Awards recognize talented students and honor their academic achievements,” said Interim President Steve Easton. “We are pleased to provide this opportunity for students choosing to enroll at Dickinson State University.”
Presidential Scholarship Awards are renewable for up to four years for first-time freshmen and three years for new transfer students with consecutive and continued enrollment at Dickinson State University. To be eligible to renew, students must earn a minimum of 24 credits in each academic year and maintain a 3.0 GPA.
To qualify for these awards, applicants must meet all Dickinson State University bachelor’s degree admission requirements* and enroll full time.
