• Students may receive only one renewable merit scholarship (Pillars, President's, Hilltop, Wildcat, Dean's, Faculty, Transfer) per year.
• Nursing students may receive financial aid scholarships from Culver-Stockton College during their freshman and sophomore years. During that time, they also are eligible to participate in the EXP@CSC rewards program. Once a nursing student is accepted as a junior by the Blessing-Rieman College of Nursing, then Blessing-Rieman determines their financial aid for their junior and senior years. At that point, the student is no longer eligible for the EXP@CSC rewards program through Culver-Stockton College.
