If a student meets the academic eligibility requirements for a HOPE Scholarship, is the student guaranteed admission to a college or University at which the student can use the scholarship?
No, each college or University has its own standards for admission. A student who meets the academic eligibility requirements for the HOPE Scholarship must still apply and be admitted to a college or university. There is no guarantee that a student will gain admission to one of the institutions at which the HOPE Scholarship can be used.
