Tennessee Education Lottery Scholarship (TELS) Recipients
Request for Review to Regain the TELS (HOPE) Scholarship
Lottery Recipients who lost the scholarship due to grade point requirements can regain the
scholarship one time if the recipient has the required 3.0 lottery grade point average at a
subsequent benchmark. The student is responsible for notifying the Lottery Scholarship
Coordinator in Financial Aid located in the Jere Whitson Building, Room 302, to check the grade
point average for the purposes of being reinstated to the TELS program.

Circle the corresponding benchmark for the following:
• I lost the Hope scholarship at the 24, 48, 72, 96 attempted hour benchmark due to not
meeting the grade point averag
e requirement.
• I have checked my lottery information on my Eagle online account and it shows that I have
reached the 24 or 48, attempted hour benchmark with a cumulative lottery GPA of at least a
2.75, or have reached the 72, 96, or 120 attempted hour benchmark with a cumulative GPA
of at least 3.0.
Please reinstate my lottery scholarship. I understand if I lose the scholarship at the next
benchmark, I will not be able to receive it again since the legislative changes only allow students
to regain the scholarship one time.
