A note about Endowed and Designated Funds:
Endowed funds are those in which the principal is never touched, but a percentage of the market value is used to for the purpose intended by the donor. Designated funds are those in which donations are made for a particular purpose, and the entire fund is available to be spent. These funds are unlike endowed funds where the contributions are invested and only the proceeds used.

All scholarships require at GPA of at least 2.0, enrollment in at least 6 credit hours, and financial need unless otherwise stated.
