Eligibility
- In Good Standing– Students must hold and maintain a minimum 80% average. An incomplete and/or failing grade from the previous semester's work will render the student ineligible for support. Failure to continue to be fully eligible each semester while holding this scholarship, will require the scholarship to be canceled.
- Post-Program Maintenance - Students who are, or will be, in post-program maintenance (ie. have completed all formal credit hour degree requirements in the program and therefore register in GRST995AA, AB) are NOT eligible for these funds.
- Required - Grad Thrive Plus 800AA must be completed by the end of the first semester in which a student begins their program, in order to be eligible. Failure to complete this by the end of their first semester will require the scholarship to be discontinued.
- Registered Full-Time - Recipients of the UR Graduate Fellowships (URGF) and UR Graduate Awards (URGA) are required to be registered full-time in the semester in which the funding is to be received and, accordingly, are required to register in no fewer than 6 credit hours of course or thesis work pertaining to their program during the corresponding semester when there are outstanding, unfulfilled requirements (i.e. thesis or course credit) in their programs.
