Summary
Billy Graham Scholarships are loan/scholarships that require the recipient to "earn" loan forgiveness after graduation through eligible full-time Christian ministry at the rate of 1 year=25% loan forgiveness. If loan forgiveness is not earned in this manner, the recipient must repay the full amount of the loan with interest. If you are not committed to fulfilling the terms of the loan/scholarship, you need not apply.
