<p>Does SLU have automatic scholarships or anyone know what we could reasonably expect based on other's experiences?</p>
<p>I was accepted to SLU with a 3.9 weighted GPA and a 31 on the ACT and they gave me the Dean’s Scholarship which is $16,000 per year for all 4 years which. It was merit based, but you had to have applied before Dec. 1st to be consodered for this specific scholarship. I don’t know of any other merit based scholarships, but you can always apply for need based aid (which is what I’m doing now) and obviously outside scholarships also (doing that too).</p>
<p>My daughter was offered the Vice Presidential Scholarship. Apparently the amount can vary, because the first letter said 16,000 per year for all four years and then about a week later, she received a letter stating that they had reviewed her qualifications and were increasing the scholarship to $18,000 per year.</p>
<p>She has 33 ACT and 3.95 unweighted, 4.25 weighted gpa, if that helps.</p>
<p>You should get automatic scholarships. I have a friend who got in with a 24 and some scholarship, and another friend who got scholarship and had a 26. Both had decent Gpas. I had a 30 and a 4.4, and got 18k a year.</p>
<p>My son was admitted to SLU with the following stats:
GPA- 3.77 UW
ACT-24
Lots of EC’s- cello/Carnegie Hall etc.
Do you think he will get any scholarship?</p>
<p>We were told that $18,000 is the max merit scholarship they give, unless you applied and won their Presidential Scholarship. </p>

<p>baseballmom94, I would guess that she would get either a Dean’s scholarship ($16,000 per year) or Vice Presidential ($18,000) per year. Her GPA is definitely high enough, but her ACT is on the borderline, I think. My daughter had a 31 and got the Vice Presidential and had a friend who had a 29 and got the Deans. Both had the same GPAs as your daughter’s. However, her friend took the ACT again and got a 31 and SLU increased her to the Vice Presidential. Has your daughter already applied? I think my daughter got her merit award notice either at the same time or shortly after she was accepted. Good luck to her!</p>
I got in with a 3.4 GPA, 33 on the ACT, lots of ECC’s, I had a pretty great essay. They also gave me $20k a year
