You can regain the hope scholarship: f you are a sophomore seeking a bachelor or associate degree, you are eligible if:
A) You meet the residency requirements for the state of Georgia
B) Earn a cumulative GPA of at least 3.0 at the end of 30 semester or 45 quarter hours of attempted course work.
C) Maintain satisfactory academic progress in the course of study

A) You meet the residency requirements for the state of Georgia
B) Earn a cumulative GPA of at least 3.0 at the end of 90 semester or 135 quarter hours of attempted course work.
C) Maintain satisfactory academic progress in the course of study.
Note, if the cumulative GPA drops below 3.0 at the end of the spring quarter/semester or at the end of three consecutive
quarters for a part time student, then the student is no longer eligible for the Hope Scholarship. The student will have to
attain a cumulative GPA of 3.0 at the 30, 60, or 90 semester hour or the 45, 90, or 135 quarter hour checkpoints to regain the scholarship.
Once a student attempts a total 127 semester or 190 quarter hours they are no longer eligible unless the degree program
requires more hours to complete. In this case, the number of hours is extended to a maximum of 225 quarter hours or 150 semester hours as long as the cumulative GPA was at least 3.0 at 190 quarter/ 127 semester checkpoint.
