Continuing Students: Students who initially enroll at WJU and do not qualify for Academic Scholarships can eventually qualify, or
re-qualify, with sustained excellent academic achievement, for either the University Scholar II or Academic Dean’s II scholarships.
A continuing student who does not already have an Academic Scholarship at WJU can, after a minimum of two semesters of full
time coursework at WJU, qualify for an academic scholarship using the criteria for ‘transfer students with 24 or more transferable
credits’ (Table II). In addition, a student who initially enrolls at WJU and receives the University Scholarship can receive the
Academic Dean’s scholarship in the same manner. The GPA evaluations to determine eligibility for these scholarships are only
conducted at the end of the spring semester of each year. These GPA evaluations and newly qualified academic scholarships are
only awarded during the fall semester for the year. Once awarded, these academic scholarships are renewable as long as the
student maintains a 3.0 cumulative GPA. Refer to the transfer credit table to determine how many semesters the student is eligible
to receive their academic award. Use the amount of degree applicable credits they have at the time they achieved the qualifying
GPA.
Other Institutional awards
The following is a list of other institutional awards for which a student may qualify or apply. These awards are for students

given at the discretion of the Athletic Director on a yearly basis, and the amounts of the awards vary.
Access Scholarship: This scholarship is available to provide an opportunity for eligible students to attend WJU for the same cost
as attending any University of California campus. If a student is admitted to any UC campus, WJU will match the cost of tuition,
