Scholarships are renewable for up to eight semesters as long as the student remains active in the Mosaic Scholars program and maintains an average GPA of 3.0 or higher.
Candidates for this program will be selected from new, incoming traditional undergraduate students from underrepresented groups and who demonstrate financial need identified by the FAFSA. Candidates will be notified of their eligibility to apply and will go through a two-part application process. The written application opens in November and award winners are announced in April.

Scholars will regularly participate in opportunities designed to help develop the skills needed for emerging community leaders. These include:
Beginning every school year, all cadres and staff will gather to introduce the program, scholar agreement, syllabus, and schedule. Scholars will have the opportunity to ask questions, set goals for the year, and meet or reconnect with everyone involved in the program.
Regular social events for scholars will be scheduled throughout the academic year to facilitate cohort bonding and healthy relationships.
Every scholar will receive support and accountability from the Mosaic Coordinator to assist in academic, social, emotional, and spiritual development. First year scholars are required to meet with the Mosaic Coordinator as assigned. Second through fourth year scholars will be given optional meeting opportunities.
Study hours will be required for all scholars with an October GPA below 3.25. The scholars will connect with Student Support Services for study groups.
By participating in service projects assigned by the Mosaic Coordinator, scholars can put their faith into action and be the hands and feet of Jesus to our community. Mosaic Scholars also will participate in Corban’s annual MLK Serve Day.
All scholars are required to be involved in a Corban-campus leadership role. While second-year leadership is encouraged, campus leadership will not be required until junior year.
