Re-entry Scholarships
Re-entry students may have their original NMU scholarship reinstated if they:
- were eligible for renewal at the time they left NMU,
- have not attended another college or university between enrollments at NMU,
- are within the "consecutive semesters" timeline that began with the original awarding date of said scholarship. (Semesters away from NMU do count in the consecutive semesters timeline.)
