Scholarships
Graduates:
Graduate beneficiaries are eligible for AUI scholarship for a maximum of 4 (four) semesters. Continuation of the scholarship depends on the student demonstrating excellence and successful progress towards the student’s studies, as evidenced by maintaining a Semester Grade Point Average (SGPA) of at least 3.5/4. If the SGPA falls between 3.00 and 3.49, the student will be placed on scholarship probation. Failure to return to the required standing, deduction or suspension of the scholarship will apply as described in the table below:
SGPA ≥ 3.5 |
Good standing, maintain scholarship |
First semester SGPA between 3.0 and 3.49 |
First probation
with conditional scholarship for the following semester |
Second semester SGPA between 3.0 and 3.49 |
2nd probation (either consecutive or cumulative) with 50% scholarship deduction for the following semester |
Third semester SGPA between 3.0 and 3.49 |
Third probation (either consecutive or cumulative) with scholarship suspension for the following semester |
Fist semester SGPA ≤ 2.99 |
First unsatisfactory standing
with 50% scholarship deduction for the following semester |
Second semester SGPA ≤ 2.99 |
2nd unsatisfactory standing (either consecutive or cumulative) with scholarship suspension for the following semester |
Graduate students benefiting from a tuition waiver or above are required to perform 05 hours of unpaid student employment per week.
Decisions regarding deduction or suspension based on the spring academic results are applied to the following summer and fall. However, summer session results will not be taken into account either for probation, suspension or reinstatement.
Students with a SGPA between 3.40 and 3.49 may appeal the scholarship committee decision. If the appeal is rejected, the probationary status will apply. If the appeal is accepted, the student is required to return to normal standing (SGPA of 3.50 or above) for the following semester; otherwise, s/he will be placed on scholarship probation without the possibility to appeal the decision.
Appeal to be removed for scholarship probation is applied to scholarship holders who are placed on first time scholarship probation. Appeal can be made only once.
To consider the appeal, school recommendation, parents financial situation, and student’s involvement in social work or other university activities will be taken into consideration.
