Brewton-Parker College (Brewton-Parker Christian University) · Georgia
Brewton-Parker's flagship Presidential Scholarship ($4,500-$9,200) is set by FAFSA Student Aid Index plus high school GPA rather than a published stat grid, and nearly every institutional award carries an explicit no-stacking rule.
The short answer
Brewton-Parker may be worth checking, but its awards do not follow a simple grades-and-scores chart. Start with the published scholarships below.
Free Merit Check
These amounts and requirements come from the school’s own published pages. Open an award to see who qualifies and how to keep it.
Based on the Student Aid Index from the student's submitted FAFSA plus high school GPA
Amount is driven by FAFSA Student Aid Index and HSGPA; no published GPA/test grid. Cannot be stacked with an Athletic Scholarship.
Phi Theta Kappa Honors Society member transferring to BPCU's Mt. Vernon campus; 30 semester credit hours earned; apply via PTK Connect; full-time enrollment required
Limited number available. Off-campus students get a reduced amount; part-time students ineligible. Not stackable with other scholarships except Extracurricular, Georgia Baptist Mission Board, or external scholarships.
Nonimmigrant/exchange-visitor international students with approved I-20 or SEVP visa; must not participate in the athletic program; non-U.S. transcripts require credential evaluation (WES, InCred, NACES, etc.)
Commuting international students receive only half the listed amounts. Cannot be combined with other scholarships including Athletic, but may stack with Extracurricular, Georgia Baptist Mission Board, or external scholarships.
Pursuing a B.A. in Christian Studies or B.M. in Worship Studies at the Mt. Vernon campus; essay on salvation experience and calling into full-time Christian ministry; Pastor/Church Leader recommendation. Online-only students ineligible.
Pays up to $10,000 toward tuition and fees. Un-stackable with most other scholarship opportunities.
Must pursue a B.A. in Music, B.M. in Worship Arts, or B.S. in Music Education and successfully audition for the Music Program; faculty determine amount after audition
Un-stackable with most other scholarship opportunities.
For 2026 & 2027 high school graduates only; at least two semesters of dual enrollment coursework at BPCU while in high school; obtain the HOPE Scholarship after graduating; attend the Mount Vernon campus (residential or commuter) immediately after high school graduation
The scholarship automatically renews throughout undergraduate years while at Brewton-Parker Christian University. To remain eligible, a student must be a full-time undergraduate student on the Mount Vernon campus and maintain HOPE eligibility. HOPE is checked at the 30, 60, and 90 attempted credit hour checkpoints and at the end of each Spring term.
Covers 100% of tuition after HOPE and GTEG are applied. Lost if the student attends another institution first; can be regained if HOPE eligibility is regained with no break in BPCU enrollment.
Nominated by high school (junior class); should rank among the top quarter of their class; nominees invited to a senior-year campus scholarship event to compete for additional scholarships that may result in a full tuition scholarship
Nomination-based, not automatic. Winning the $9,000 award positions the student to compete for additional scholarships up to full tuition.
Dependent children of Georgia Baptist ministers actively serving in a Baptist church
Georgia Baptist Mission Board award hosted at BPCU; combines with HOPE to cover 100% of tuition and fees.
These are the rules we would flag for your family. Each comes from Brewton-Parker's published information.
The scholarship automatically renews throughout undergraduate years while at Brewton-Parker Christian University. To remain eligible, a student must be a full-time undergraduate student on the Mount Vernon campus and maintain HOPE eligibility. HOPE is checked at the 30, 60, and 90 attempted credit hour checkpoints and at the end of each Spring term. A single rough term can end a four-year award here without warning if the GPA floor isn't met cumulatively.
Brewton-Parker's policy doesn't specify whether outside scholarships hit loans, grants, or only the COA ceiling. Get a written aid-office answer before chasing private awards.
The page says it is based on the Student Aid Index from your FAFSA plus high school GPA — so the $4,500-$9,200 amount is need-influenced and you cannot get it without filing the FAFSA. No GPA/test grid is published.
The page states twice that these two awards cannot be stacked with each other; athletes must effectively choose the larger package.
Each is described as not stackable / 'un-stackable with most other scholarship opportunities'; PTK and International may stack only with Extracurricular Scholarships, Georgia Baptist Mission Board scholarships, or external scholarships.
PTK recipients staying off campus 'will have a reduced scholarship amount,' and commuting international students receive only half of the $7,000-$9,000 amounts. Part-time students are ineligible for the PTK award entirely.
It requires obtaining and maintaining the Georgia HOPE Scholarship (checked at 30/60/90 attempted credit hours and each Spring), full-time enrollment on the Mount Vernon campus, and use in the semester immediately after high school graduation — attending another institution first permanently forfeits it.
The financial aid page instructs students to send a copy of any outside scholarship letter as soon as awarded because 'These awards may affect your BPC financial aid package,' and the Student Financial Responsibility Agreement says prizes/awards/scholarships are a Title IV financial resource that may reduce eligibility for other federal/state aid already disbursed.
Recipients must continue in a church-related vocation or Christian ministry for at least three years after completing their education or may be required to repay the Georgia Baptist Convention at not less than $200 per year.
Students comfortable with a need-influenced award model (Presidential is FAFSA-SAI-based) at a small Georgia Baptist school, plus dual-enrollment alumni who can capture 100% tuition after HOPE/GTEG, ministry-bound students, PTK transfers, and musicians who can win up to $10,000 program awards.
Federal reporting on who actually enrolls at Brewton-Parker, what they paid after aid, and what happened next — independent of anything the school markets.
| Family income | Average net price paid |
|---|---|
| $0–$30,000 | $24,574 |
| $30,001–$48,000 | $24,633 |
| $48,001–$75,000 | $27,082 |
| $75,001–$110,000 | $28,590 |
| $110,001+ | $29,357 |
| All income levels (average) | $26,054 |
That works out to an average 33% discount off the sticker price above — both figures come from the same federal AY 2021-22 Scorecard report, not a number the school itself published.
Brewton-Parker uses award-by-award no-stacking rules rather than a single policy: the Presidential and Athletic Scholarships cannot be combined with each other; the PTK, International, and Program of Study scholarships are 'un-stackable' with most other institutional awards (PTK and International explicitly allow stacking only with Extracurricular, Georgia Baptist Mission Board, or external scholarships); only the small Extracurricular awards ($1,000-$2,500) are expressly stackable with Presidential and Athletic. Outside scholarships must be reported and 'may affect your BPC financial aid package,' but no displacement order is published.
The scholarships page states the Presidential Scholarship 'cannot be stacked with an Athletic Scholarship' and vice versa; the PTK Scholarship 'is not stackable with other scholarship opportunities ... excluding Extracurricular Scholarships, Georgia Baptist Mission Board scholarships, or external scholarships'; the International Student Scholarship 'cannot be combined with other scholarships, including Athletic Scholarships; However, it may be stackable with Extracurricular Scholarships, Georgia Baptist Mission Board, or external scholarships'; and each Program of Study scholarship 'is un-stackable with most other scholarship opportunities.' Extracurricular Scholarships 'are stackable with a(n) Presidential Scholarship and Athletic Scholarship.' The financial aid page requires students to report outside awards because they 'may affect your BPC financial aid package,' and the Student Financial Responsibility Agreement notes prizes/awards/scholarships/grants are a financial resource under Title IV that 'may, therefore, reduce my eligibility for other federal and/or state financial aid.' No loan-first/grant-first reduction order is published.
These awards can be harder to find. Each one has its own rules.
Explicitly stackable with a Presidential Scholarship and Athletic Scholarship — the only awards the page says stack with them.
Un-stackable with most other scholarship opportunities. Contact Dr. Beverly Faircloth (bfaircloth@bpc.edu).
Un-stackable with other scholarship opportunities. Contact Dr. Timothy Miller (tmiller@bpc.edu).
ONE-TIME award; funds must be used exclusively for tuition expenses.
Renewable each year. Recipients must continue in a church-related vocation for at least 3 years after finishing school or may be required to repay at not less than $200 per year.
Cannot be stacked with a Presidential Scholarship.
Page states 'Additional scholarship monies are not guaranteed.'
The Financial Aid Priority Filing Deadline is May 15th; students whose files are completed by this date receive priority consideration for financial aid according to the institutional packaging policy. The page does not state a separate merit-scholarship application deadline.
No grid is published. The flagship Presidential Scholarship ($4,500-$9,200 per academic year) is based on the Student Aid Index from your FAFSA and your high school GPA, so the FAFSA is required to be considered.
Two published paths: the Dual Enrollment Excellence Scholarship covers 100% of tuition after HOPE and GTEG for 2026 & 2027 high school graduates who completed at least two semesters of BPCU dual enrollment; and Future Baron Scholars ($9,000 by nomination) may compete for additional scholarships 'that may result in a full tuition scholarship.' GBMB Ministers' Children plus HOPE also covers 100% of tuition and fees.
Mostly no. Presidential and Athletic Scholarships cannot be combined; PTK, International, and Program of Study scholarships are un-stackable with most other awards. Only the Extracurricular Scholarships (Voices of Truth $2,500, Choir $1,000, Band $1,000) are expressly stackable with a Presidential or Athletic Scholarship, and PTK/International may also stack with Georgia Baptist Mission Board or external scholarships.
Per the official Tuition & Fees page for 2026-2027: full-time tuition is $19,000 per year, annual tuition and mandatory fees total $20,920, and annual tuition, fees and room and board total $29,750 (full-time student in semi-private dorm housing). A full federal cost-of-attendance figure including books, transportation, and personal expenses is not published on the page.
Brewton-Parker is in a recognizable cluster (133 schools share this category). That framing matters when comparing peer schools that may publish the policy differently or not at all.
Brewton-Parker is one of them. The right move is the aid-office email script below, not a guess.
Brewton-Parker is one of them. The cohort minority (84 schools) only awards one-year scholarships, which means the four-year value families assume on a brochure quote isn't guaranteed at every school.
