Renewal risk profile
UMHB's published renewal rules cluster around a 3.0 floor with no major-GPA gating, which is survivable for the typical freshman with steady study habits. The risk is non-renewal due to enrollment status (dropping below full-time), not GPA.

How UMHB compares across our verified dataset
- 669 of 751 verified schools publish at least one four-year renewable merit award.
UMHB 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.
