What are some other options to consider if you’re found ineligible for the Bright Futures Scholarship your starting year of college? Are you able to apply for it again or this a one time application?
No, you must qualify for BF before you graduate from high school and must apply for it in the summer immediately following graduation. If you don’t, you can’t reapply.
Other options are local scholarships, grants from the colleges. You’ll probably find your best option to be community college with a transfer plan to one of the 4 year schools.
