Shizenkan University expects scholarship recipients to make a full commitment to their studies at Shizenkan University. Therefore, at the end of each semester, the scholarship recipient’s academic achievements and academic attitude will be reviewed to determine ongoing eligibility for the  subsequent semester. Scholarship recipients whose grade point average (GPA*) is below 2.00, will be subject to interviews and guidance. If the scholarship recipient’s academic performance is extremely poor and/or – has – issues with their academic attitude, with little prospect for improvement, future scholarship payments may be reduced or rescinded.

S, A, B, C, and F correspond to 4, 3, 2, 1, and 0 scores, respectively,  where I is not considered for GPA calculation. In order to take into account the performance of all courses that a student took for scholarship continuation review, the P (Pass) of a course graded on a P/F/I scale is also calculated as equivalent to an A in courses graded on the S/A/B/C/F/I scale.
