Renewal ruleScots Legacy Award: renewal floor that quietly knocks awards out

How Maryville compares across our verified dataset

665 of 749 verified schools publish at least one four-year renewable merit award.
Maryville 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.
