Merit Scholarship Question OOS

<p>I am an OOS applicant and was wondering if I would have a chance at receiving a scholarship.
I am from PA
Unweighted GPA 3.67
Weighted GPA 3.81
ACT Composite 27
Vigorous Coursework including mostly honors classes through high school,AP Macroeconomics and Dual enrollment through the University of Pittsburgh.
I plan on majoring in Computer Science.
If I was not eligible or have a chance for a scholarship how could I better improve my chances?</p>

<p>Your GPA and ACT score may be enough to get you into UMD, but I doubt that you’d be in the running for (much) merit aid. Make sure and look at the cost of attending OOS. Without the Banneker/Key, it makes the cost prohibitive for many OOS students. Sorry…</p>

<p>Thanks for responding. I figured that would be the case, but just wanted to double check.</p>

<p>Everyone I know who has a merit scholarship has at least a 2000 (usually higher) SAT.</p>
