Colgate does not have academic scholarships. We do have need-based financial aid. Athletic scholarships are the only merit-based aid at Colgate.

For an athletic scholarship:

If injured and unable to compete again: Keep scholarship.

If cut for athletic ability not matching what was expected: Keep scholarship.

If cut for violation of team or university rules: Colgate takes away the scholarship (this decision is subject to appeal to a board that does not include anyone from Athletics). When an athletic scholarship is taken away: IF the student A) Applied for Need-Based Aid when they applied to the school, and B) Qualify for Need-Based Aid, then they could get need-based aid.

Note that the NCAA allows the taking away ("non-renewal") of scholarships for almost any reason, including simply because the coaching staff doesn't like the athlete anymore. Colgate goes above what is required by the NCAA.

Wow, what a shame. Thought he had great production last year when he was in. Was at the Albany game , did an acrobatic jump into the end zone and stood out to me the most out of the RBs. Is this a sign of the resurging economy or an internal problem? Sure doesn't look good for the program having productive seniors transfer
