Jade_Greene answered Thursday May 13 2004, 10:55 pm: North Carolina has a lot of scholarship-loans. If you applied for one of these, then your signed application (and the fact you cashed the check they sent you) can be taken as accepting the terms of the scholarship-loan. A scholarship-loan does have to be repaid under certain circumstances. So get out all the documentation related to the scholarship and read the fine print. Then if you're still unsure, call the organization that gave you the scholarship and ask for details.
A regular scholarship, bursary, or award doesn't have to be repaid; if your GPA drops too low, if you stop doing the thing for which you are given the scholarship (such as a sport), or if you have to quit school, then all the granting organization does is turn off the money and you go your separate ways.
