Decision sheet

Florida · Research checked 2026-07-02 · School research, not an aid offer

The starting point

Rollins centers merit on a tiered academic scholarship ladder (Presidential, Dean's, Centennial, Achievement) topped by the full-ride Alfond Scholars, with service (Bonner) and science (Cram) tracks.

More than one award path. Some awards use published academic thresholds. Others have different selection criteria. A score chart does not describe every award at this school.

Awards to discuss

First 3 of 11 recorded awards, in chapter display order. This is a selection, not a ranking. Read the full chapter for all awards. Amounts retain the original units and conditions; confirm the entering year with the school.

Ask before you decide

  1. Which entering-year policy and residency category apply to us? What are the admission and scholarship deadlines?
  2. What grades and credits are required to renew, and for how many terms?
  3. How would other school awards or outside scholarships change the offer?

Recorded stacking policy: Donald J. Cram Science Scholarships are typically awarded in addition to one of Rollins' other academic scholarships.

The research date is not a guarantee that a policy still applies. Confirm current amounts, deadlines and conditions with the school before making a financial decision.
