For students to qualify for the scholarship under the current and/or renewal requirements, they must meet certain criteria.
Current Requirements- Enrollment in at least 12 college-level (nondevelopmental/bridge) credits each semester to meet the full-time enrollment requirement. A student must complete a 30-annual-credit-hour requirement to qualify for renewal.
- Students may only be considered for the S.C. LIFE Scholarship for two years from the date of initial college enrollment when working toward a two-year degree.
- Students who are S.C. LIFE Scholarship recipients are not eligible to receive S.C. Lottery-Funded Tuition Assistance, except during the remediation period.
- Students with disabilities may be approved to take a reduced course load (instead of 12 credit hours) to meet the full-time enrollment requirement and the 30-annual credit-hour requirement.
