<p>As an out of state applicant with no opportunity at receiving need based financial aid, I have become increasingly curious about what sort of merit opportunities Michigan has, specifically Ross. Briefly, I have a 4.0 GPA and a 34 on the ACT but I believe that this 34 could potentially become a 36 within a couple of weeks after testing in September. What sort of chances would a student like me have at this sort of aid, particularly if I were to get a 36?</p>
<p>Michigan’s web site has very good information on what scholarships are offered and what it takes to get them. Try this:</p>

<p>Thank you! </p>
<p>Unfortunately though, this does not necessarily tell me much about the situation I’m in. Can anyone chime in through experience as an out of state recipient of merit aid?</p>
