<p>Is your 97 GPA weighted or unweighted? Buffalo only looks at unweighted. If you have an unweighted 95 or better, you are halfway toward a full ride (the Presidential Scholarship). Your SATs are a little low, however. Have you considered taking the ACT? It’s an easier test and if you can score a 33 or better, you are eligible for the Presidential. Otherwise, Buffalo will likely give you $5,000 merit money per year. Your SAT scores are really what are holding you back. Consider the ACT and good luck!</p>
