How much merit scholarships are given?

I have a 4.0 and a 32 (hoping to raise my score to a 34) on the ACT. I know that Auburn has university scholarships for incoming freshman that automatically give me between $13,000 and $18,000, however, I was wondering if they give out much merit besides this. I have a friend at SMU who got nearly half her tuition paid and she had similar scores to myself. I wasn’t sure if Auburn was this way.

Depends on what you qualify for. I received the “Ever To Conquer” scholarships that grants $20,000 for minorities from Auburn. I didn’t have to specifically apply for this scholarship they just awarded it to me.
