Trapper Presidential Level Scholarship

IMPORTANT NOTE: THIS IS NOT A MONETARY SCHOLARSHIP. CLICK FOR DETAILS.

This Trapper notification is simply NWC’s method to communicate to you the anticipated amount of NWC Private Donor scholarship you may receive at a later date. If you receive a Private Donor award announcement in the spring or summer, this dollar amount will be removed from your application. The Private Donor announcement will replace this Trapper level.

Trapper Presidential Level Scholarships are available to degree seeking students who enroll full time each semester at NWC. To qualify, new students must have a final high school GPA or GPA from a previously attended Institution of Higher Learning (whichever is most recent) of 3.50 or higher, Pre-2014 GED test recipients must have a score 575 or higher, Post-2014 GED test recipients must have a score of 170 or higher, HiSET test recipients must have an average score of 16 or higher, and Homeschooled students must have an ACT score 25 or higher. Returning students’ eligibility will be based on their cumulative NWC GPA. Students must be registered for a minimum of 12 credit hours at the last day to drop a full-semester class (referred to as Census Date) for the Fall and Spring semesters. Eligible recipients receive one-half of their academic year Trapper scholarship each semester, with spring semester funding eligibility dependent upon their Cumulative GPA after the fall semester (min of 2.00 required at end of fall semester). Students must maintain a Cumulative GPA of at least a 2.00 after the conclusion of each spring semester to qualify for Trapper scholarships for the next academic year. Students must complete the online scholarship application each year to be considered for NWC Scholarships.
