Scholarship Guide for Supervisors

Enrollment:
All students should enroll and maintain full-time status (minimum 12 hours per semester) to retain these scholarships.

Scholarship Service Hours:
There should be a designated area in the office for signing in and recording hours completed. Students are required to complete 75 scholarship (no more – no less) service hours each semester to retain their scholarship. If they do not complete all hours, their scholarship will be cancelled for future semesters. To stay on track to complete the hours, a good rule of thumb is to have completed 37.5 hours by mid-term. New incoming students will receive their placement information through their AP email account prior to the start of the fall semester. This email will provide the contact information for the department in which they have been assigned. 

Continuing students will remain in their original departments, throughout the duration of their scholarship. A student may request to transfer to another department at the end of the semester if he or she is dissatisfied with the current placement. Requests are made to the Student Financial Aid & Scholarships. Efforts will be made to allow the transfer to the requested department; however, they may be assigned to any department needing assistance.

All students should report to their assigned department by the first week of classes. An unsatisfactory service performance may result in the cancellation of the scholarship.

General Dress Code:
Appropriate appearance is expected. Student should project a professional image. It is the supervisor's discretion to identify and address concerns as-needed.
