Section HEA 9.04 - Naming the scholar

(1) The number of scholarships available to each high school shall be based on the enrollment in that school as of the 3rd Friday in September in the academic year in which the scholar is selected. No adjustment shall be made to the number of scholarships available even if the enrollment increases or decreases during the academic year.

(2) Students under ch. 220, Stats., and students participating in the full-time open enrollment program shall compete for the scholarship at the high school they actually attend.

(3) The scholar shall be selected based on the scholar's GPA as it is normally determined by each high school and as shown on the official transcript as of the last day of the last semester that ended just prior to the February 15 deadline.

(4) For purposes of selecting the scholars and alternate scholars, the scholar's and alternate's GPA shall include the same number of places past the decimal that the high school normally uses on the official high school transcript.

(5) No scholarships shall be re-allocated after the February 15 deadline. The school's nominees and alternates are final.

(6) High schools which operate on a tri-mester system shall have 30 days beyond the last day of the 2nd tri-mester to submit the name of the scholar.
