<p>you should check with uab re the scholarships also… after dec 1 the scholarships are as funds are available, so not totally impossible. Heather McKnight is the contact person you need to talk to (Heather McKnight, Scholarship Coordinator in Financial Aid, at 256-934-8223)
Entering freshmen are automatically considered for all university-wide academic scholarships as soon as they’re admitted to UAB. All scholarships are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis as funds are available (so you’ll want to apply while there’s still some left for you) and are renewable for four years. However, if as the post above says you are international, i’m not sure about merit aid. the cost of uab though is “reasonable”</p>
<p>To be eligible for an academic scholarship at UAB, you must be admitted by May 1. Apply soon—don’t miss the deadline.</p>
<p>The last scores that we will consider for scholarship purposes are the December ACT and SAT test scores from your senior year in high school.
