The Gerald R. Ford Scholarship is available to a student who enrolls as a freshman after high school graduation, takes at least 15 credits per semester (optional minimum of 6 credits for spring or summer semester), and attends the W.A. Lettinga Campus in Grand Rapids. Applicants must have the required minimum CGPA of 3.75 at the end of 6th semester (junior year) of high school. All candidates will be reviewed by a pre-selection committee to ensure that applicants meet the minimum academic requirements. After this initial review, a Davenport Admissions Representative will contact candidates to schedule interviews and provide information about the interview process. The first interview is designed more to get to know the candidate and explore questions related to the essay. After the first interview, the committee will recommend two to three candidates to the President of Davenport University. A Davenport Admissions Representative will contact the final candidates to schedule the second interview and provide information about the interview process. For the second and final interview, students will meet with the President of Davenport University and a representative of the Davenport Executive Leadership Team.
