Any full scholarships?

Anonymous
Besides GW, does anyone know of full merit scholarships awarded or available? Do you have to apply specifically for them or are you automatically considered?
Thanks.

Michigan State. You are invited to compete (Alumni Distinguished Scholarship).

If the student has a 4.0 and a 36 ACT or 1600 SAT, they qualify for the "Presidential Elite" scholarship at University of Alabama. Full tuition for 8 semesters plus some other stipends.

I think this is also the case if they are a Natl Merit Semi Finalist.

Vanderbilt has one.

University of Chicago and Case Western offer a couple. You must apply. Georgia Tech also offers a couple totally grade based and likely go to GA residents.

Very competitive but WashU, Duke, Vanderbilt, USC, Emory, UNC, and Notre Dame. Check out the Stamps Scholars program. I also know some kids attending Arizona State and University of Arizona on full tuition scholarships.

It sounds like they ended up paying 30k less for their W&M degree

This is correct. There isn’t a separate application, but you have to apply by Nov 1 to be considered.

Op almost all schools (other than Ivy) have it. It’s not a question of if but rather how many slots.
