Big Brothers/Big Sisters Scholarship
(Atlanta Campus Only)
American InterContinental University has partnered with Big Brothers/Big Sisters (BBBS) of the Metro Atlanta area to create a scholarship designed to assist potential students involved in the BBBS Mentoring Towards College (MTC) program. The MTC program is designed to pair mentors who are recent college graduates with mentees and can help prepare promising youth involved in BBBS for entry into college. The conditions are as follows:
- Candidates must apply and be accepted for admission to the University to be eligible to receive the scholarship
- Award recipients will be selected by the BBBS organization and all scholarships will be awarded based on availability of funds
- Recipients are required to complete a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). Any need-based grants must first be applied to tuition and fees prior to the scholarship being awarded
- Recipients must receive passing grades in the course to receive scholarship funds
- Recipients must maintain satisfactory academic progress in order to maintain scholarship eligibility
- Scholarship funds are used towards current tuition and fees only. Any outside funding received above and beyond tuition charges will result in an award reduction by that amount
- The scholarship is awarded proportionately throughout each academic year in the program
- All funds are applied as a credit to the student’s account, and no cash payments will be awarded to the student
- The scholarship is non-transferrable and non-substitutable and cannot be combined with any other AIU institutional grant or scholarship
Scholarship amounts vary by student and program and all selected candidates are required to agree to the terms and conditions set forth by American InterContinental University. Please contact the Financial Aid Office for further details.
