- Domestic students must register in a minimum of 60% of a full course load in either the Fall or Winter terms to activate the scholarship (or 40% for students with a permanent disability).
- To comply with student VISA requirements, the definition of full-time for scholarship eligibility for international students is 80% or more of a full course load.
- To renew a scholarship that is payable over 8 semesters or 4 years, students must meet the scholarship average required at the end of their second semester – generally Winter.

- To renew into year 3 - top 12 courses from semesters 1 through 4;
- To renew into year 4 - top 18 courses from semesters 1 through 6.
