Based on your performance so far, and the trend you have set for yourself, you will surely receive the Maximus ($6000/yr) scholarship. Assuming you have a good rank by the end junior year (preferably in top 3%) and write a good essay, Morrill is also a distinct possibility. If anything, try to improve on the ACT score as you still have a lot of time.

Keep up the good work and wish you all the best.
