All athletic scholarships are based on coach's recommendations.
Scholarships are available in the following areas:
Scholarship recipients are required to sign and return a Scholarship
Agreement Form prior to their initial enrollment. The Scholarship
Agreement Form is mailed to the student with his/her initial award
letter. Scholarships funds may be withheld from the student’s
account until this form is returned to the Financial Aid Office.
To receive an athletic scholarship, a student must be eligible
to compete in the sport in accordance with guidelines established
by the NAIA and Great Plains Athletic Conference (GPAC). To be eligible
to compete in Intercollegiate Athletics, new students must meet
two of the following three requirements based on final high school
transcripts. Students who do no meet these requirements are not
eligible to compete in NAIA athletics for the first two semesters
at Dana College.
- Be in the top half of the graduating class
- Cumulative GPA of 2.0 on a 4.0 scale
- 18 ACT score, or equivalent SAT
Eligibility requirements for transfer students differ. Please contact
the athletic department for more details.
The size of the award is based on a recommendation received from
the Athletic Department. Scholarships may be renewed with continued
eligibility and participation as described on the Scholarship Agreement
Form.
Renewal Requirements

the conclusion of the Spring semester) must be met to remain eligible:

- Third season: 2.00 and 48 credits accumulated
