There is no particular requirement. Most schools that recipients attend are on a quarter basis. At the end of each quarter the grades will be reviewed based on forward progress (not necessarily by the grade) and the next quarterly grant will be approved. When reviewing the grades, if it is determined that forward progress is not being made, then the next quarterly grant will not be approved.

Contact person, phone, mailing address and application materials on file. See them with a plan.
