Amount: $5,000 each year (up to 4 years). About: The Legislative Incentives for Future Excellence (LIFE) Scholarship is offered by the state of South Carolina to incoming college freshmen. The award is worth up to $5,000 per year. To qualify, students must satisfy two of the following three requirements: have a 3.0 minimum cumulative GPA (letter grade “B”); score a minimum of 1100 on SAT critical reading and math sections combined (ACT composite score of at least 22); or rank in the top 30% of their graduating class. Students must be a U.S. citizen or eligible noncitizen, be a South Carolina resident at the time of high school graduation and during the period of award, have graduated from a South Carolina high school (graduates from non-SC high schools qualify if they’re dependents of a parent or legal guardian who is a legal SC resident); attend an eligible private or public college or university in SC, be a full-time undergraduate student seeking a first baccalaureate degree, and meet other requirements.
