renewalScots Legacy Award: renewal floor that quietly knocks awards out
Students who continue to be enrolled full-time (at least 12 credit hours) and maintain academic progress toward a degree completion will continue to receive funding. A single rough term can end a four-year award here without warning if the GPA floor isn't met cumulatively.

How Maryville compares across our verified dataset

669 of 751 verified schools publish at least one four-year renewable merit award.
Maryville is one of them. The cohort minority (82 schools) only awards one-year scholarships, which means the four-year value families assume on a brochure quote isn't guaranteed at every school.
