Scholarship Retention Information

To maintain scholarships, students must remain in good standing under the academic rules as well as the Honor Code. It is important to note that maintenance of good academic standing is a prerequisite for continuation at the Penn State Dickinson Law and for graduation — not just for scholarship retention.

To maintain good standing under the academic rules, students must:

• Earn a semester grade point average of at least 2.0 at the end of each semester, except for the first semester of the first year;
• Earn a cumulative grade point average of at least 2.0 at the end of each semester, except for the first semester of the first year.
• In the first semester of the first year, earn grades below “C” in no more than 9 credits.

Additionally, because Dickinson Law places a high value on academic integrity, Honor Code violations will result in revocation of any and all Dickinson Law scholarships and grants.
