(1)
Be a resident of South Dakota at the time of graduation from high school;
(2)
Have a composite score of 24, or higher, on the test administered by the American
College Testing Program or a verbal-mathematics score of 1070-1100, on the Scholastic
Assessment Test and the ACT or SAT test shall be taken before the student graduates
from high school;
(3)
Meet the high school course requirements as provided in Board of Regents Policy Number
2:3(2)(F) as in effect on January 1, 2003
; or receive a score of 26 or above on each of the
ACT sub-tests in the areas of English, social studies, science, and mathematics, and
receive a passing performance score on the foreign language college board advanced
placement exam that would reflect mastery at the second year level
;
(4)
Attend a university, college, or technical school that is accredited by the North Central
Association of Colleges and Schools and that provides instruction from a campus located
in South Dakota; and
(5)
Enter into the program within five years of graduation from high school or within one
year of the student's release from active duty with an active component of the armed
forces if the release is within five years of the student's graduation from high school.
However, eligibility is lost if a student attends full-time a regionally accredited university,
college, or technical school located outside South Dakota within the five years following
high school graduation or within the one year following release from active military
service.
A student is eligible to participate in the South Dakota opportunity scholarship program for the
equivalent of four academic years (eight consecutive spring and fall terms) or until the attainment
of a baccalaureate or technical degree, whichever comes first. However, the executive director of the
Board of Regents may grant exceptions to the continuous enrollment requirements for good cause
shown.
