Bright Futures
Awards
Estimated
Bright Future (BF) awards for incoming freshmen are projected
based on high school information. The award will become official
after we receive confirmation from the State. You will also be
notified by the State regarding your eligibility. The BF award
amounts are based on an average enrollment of 14 hours per term
and will be calculated after confirmation from the State and enrollment.
The
Bright Futures Program consists of the three awards listed below.
Each award has its own academic eligibility requirements, award
amounts, and duration.

amounts will apply. If some of or all of the classes are not at
