Are major-specific scholarships binding?

<p>Quite a few of the scholarships that turned up on my search were major-specific. I have an idea of what I'm going to major in, but I have no idea right now if that'll actually end up being the path I pursue. If I applied to one of these scholarships and got it, then would I have to major in that specified area?</p>

<p>My son has interviewed for a major-specific scholarship whose rules specifically say that you must submit your college transcript each year to indicate that you are making progress in that major. Read the scholarship rules carefully.</p>

<p>Thank you. (:</p>

<p>You're welcome and good luck!</p>
