<p>So I'm not doing well in one of my classes and I want to drop the course which would bring me down to 9 credit hours and not full time. I know that I'll have to pay back bright futures for this since FA has already been disburst but my question is since I took 12 classes in the fall am I required to have 12 credits in the current spring semester (24 credits total) in order to get renewed next fall? If I dropped to 9 credits now would I have to take a course in summer to make up for the missing 3 credits to be renewed? I have the Bright Futures 75% scholarship, just to specifi</p>
<p>If you want it to be renewed you need to have 24 credits, and you can use summer credits. Don’t forget the gpa requirements. You should check with your college financial officer.</p>

<p>“Summer grades and hours earned after spring evaluation may be used if necessary to meet the scholarship renewal requirements. A student must ask a financial aid officer at the home postsecondary institution (that reported his/her spring renewal grade and hours) to submit a summer grade and hours update to the Bright Futures office indicating the adjusted cumulative GPA and hours.”</p>
