GPA required to maintain National Merit Scholarship?

Paying for College National Merit Aid
1

I know that each college has their own GPA requirements to maintain a National Merit Scholarship. Both Texas A & M and Texas Tech are high, 3.5 Does anyone know what UT Dallas requires? Is their a list somewhere with schools that offer national merit scholarships and the GPA required to keep the scholarship?

At Alabama, a 3.0 is needed to maintain the NMF scholarship that covers the tuition portion for 5 years. A 3.3 is needed to maintain the $3500/year stipend that comes with the NMF scholarship.

Here’s a list of the NMF scholarships at universities. (Wichita State University should also be on the list, and its GPA requirement is also 3.5.) You’ll have to check each school and see what their website says about the scholarship, or contact the school.

Wichita State is on the list.

I believe UT Dallas’ NMF requirements are the same as their AES scholarships. The requirement for AES are 3.0 semester GPA and 15 credit hours or more each semester.

Benedictine College in Atchison, Kansas offers free tuition to national merit finalists. They sent me something in the mail a few months ago indicating that this was a new scholarship starting in 2015 and it is being offered to a maximum of 10 students. This link does not indicate that it is a new scholarship, but does validate that the free tuition is available to NMFs.

My neighbor graduated from this school last year. She really liked the school, but I am looking elsewhere.
