Undergraduate Merit Scholarships
Our merit scholarships
are based on your final cumulative high school grade
point average (G.P.A.) (or, for transfer students, your G.P.A. from all
previous college–level institutions) and ACT/SAT scores. Scholarships
are awarded beginning with your freshman year and are renewable for up
to four years (a total of five years of scholarship aid).
