## About this scholarship

The Florida Bright Futures Scholarship Program, available at Albizu University-Miami, is a state-funded initiative designed for Florida high school graduates. Eligibility is determined by the Florida Department of Education based on the applicant's high school academic transcripts and SAT or ACT scores. Students must apply for the program during their final year of high school. Once enrolled in college, recipients receive funding that covers a fixed cost per credit hour. This rate depends on the student's award level, institution type, and credit type, with potential bonuses for exceptional academic performance. The scholarship is renewable, provided that students maintain a specified GPA while attending college to keep the award. Although this state merit program is not directly tied to federal need-based aid, students should consult the university's financial aid office regarding how state awards coordinate with the FAFSA. See the official page for current dates.
