Frequently Asked Questions

We understand that investing is a meaningful decision. Here you’ll find answers to the most common questions about Scholar Hospitality Holdings I LLC, the Scholar Owners Club, the investment structure, and what you can expect as an investor.

Are the Penn Stater and Nittany Lion Inn included in the Owners Club program?

They are not included in this investment opportunity. The offering currently includes five properties: the Hyatt Hotel, Fraser Centre Retail, The Scholar Hotel, the Marriott Courtyard, and the Marriott Residence Inn.

How much can I invest?

The minimum investment is $5,000.00. The maximum total amount that may be raised under the offering is $75,000,000. Once this amount is reached, the offering will be closed.

Additionally, while there is no limit to the amount an accredited investor can invest in the offering (subject to the $75,000,000 offering limit), non-accredited investors may only invest up to the greater of 10% of their annual income or 10% of their net worth (if such investor is a natural person) or the greater of 10% of their annual revenues or 10% of their net assets based on the investor’s most recent fiscal year end (if such investor is a business or other entity). These caps on non-accredited investors apply to the total amount invested during the lifetime of the offering and are not reset annually to allow for additional investments in future years once these caps are met.

What are the benefits of the Scholar Owners Club?

The specific details of the Club benefits are still being finalized. Overall, the goal is to provide the investors/members with the following benefits:

Preferred Reservations
Room Upgrades
Dining Discounts
Early Access to High Demand Weekends
Access to Exclusive Events at the Hotels

In addition to properties included in the investment offering, the plan is to include other Scholar properties as part of the Owners Club. This would include the Nittany Lion Inn, The Penn Stater Hotel and the Nittany Residence Club.

When will my loyalty benefits begin?

Following the acquisition of the identified properties by Scholar Hospitality Holdings I LLC, the loyalty and benefit program is expected to commence thereafter, although timing may vary. The goal is for Scholar Hospitality Holdings I LLC to acquire the properties before December 31, 2026 with the Scholar Owners Club taking shape in early 2027.

As Scholar Hotels adds properties to its portfolio, will I have access to those properties?

Additional properties may be included in the loyalty program at the discretion of the Manager. Properties may also be added to or removed from the program at any time.
