be met no later than January 31 of a mid-year graduating senior's graduation year (i.e. students who graduate after one semester of their senior year) or June 30 of a regular graduating senior's graduation year. Each district school board (or school administration for nonpublic schools) has the right to set an earlier deadline for volunteer/paid work hour completion requirements if they choose to do so. Renewal requirements At each level, the scholarship is valid for one year and is renewable for up to five years or a specified number of semester hours depending on scholarship level (whichever comes sooner), but certain requirements must be met regarding GPA and courses completed, depending on the level. All levels: Be enrolled for at least six non-remedial semester credit hours (or equivalent) per term, unless the student needs fewer than six semester hours to complete their degree program; Complete a minimum 24 semester hours (or equivalent) per year. FAS and ATS: 3.00 GPA, must earn credits in all classes taken, unless withdrawn from (i.e. the student must pass all courses taken, except for courses from which the student withdraws). FMS, GSV, and GSC: 2.75 GPA, must earn credits in all classes taken, unless withdrawn from. If a FAS awardee drops below the 3.00 GPA requirement, they are allowed to renew at the FMS level (provided their GPA is still above 2.75). If the student dropped below the threshold during their first year of study they may also be reinstated at the FAS level if they bring their GPA back above 3.00; FMS awardees can also be reinstated if they drop below the 2.75 requirement and then bring their GPA back up during their first year of study, but they cannot earn FAS even if their GPA meets the FAS requirement of 3.00. If a student withdraws from a course, they must repay Bright Futures for the cost of that course. If a student is unable to meet annual renewal requirements due to a verifiable illness or other documented emergency (as reported by the post-secondary institution), an exception of one academic year to the renewal timeframe may be granted. Award amounts (All numbers as of 2022–23 school year) FAS: 100% of tuition and fees at all public institutions (Florida College System or State University System of Florida) or comparable amount at private institutions. FMS: 100% of tuition and fees if enrolled in an associate degree
