Expectations & Requirements
Maintain your active status for the Guardian Scholars Program!
The Guardian Scholars Program has a set of expectations and requirements for our scholars to maintain their status within the program. These expectations and requirements are listed to encourage our scholars to foster a sense of community, check in with student or professional staff, and to develop a plan for college and after graduation. Scholars must comply with the requirements and expectations in order to continue with the benefits and resources provided by the Guardian Scholars Program.
Students will be assigned into cohorts based on their academic year status. Each cohort will be expected to fulfill a set of requirements to maintain active status with the Guardian Scholars Program. The General Expectations are for EVERY Cohort, which means, regardless of your academic year, you are expected to fulfill these requirements for GSP Active Status.
DEADLINE FOR FALL ACTIVE STATUS ELIGIBILITY: 12/18/2026
