Merit Scholarships with 29 ACT and 3.17 GPA

<p>I'm looking for a Full Tuition or Full Ride Scholarship. I have a 29 composite score, that superscores to a 30. I'm an Alabama resident and have a 3.17 GPA. I want to major in nursing but can't find any nursing specific scholarships for freshman. Any help would be great!</p>

<p>Look at the stickied threads at the top of this forum. Did you overlook them?</p>

<p>According to the automatic scholarship thread, University of Arkansas at Monticello offers Full tuition + Room for a 3.0 GPA with a 27 or better ACT. The school offers both an A.A.S. and a B.S. in nursing. Good luck!</p>

<p>Jacksonville State University offers full tuition for 26-29 and it’s a great school. If you had a 30 you could get a complete full ride.</p>

<p>Howard has a full tuition scholarship for 3.0 HS GPA and 26 ACT: [Grants</a>, Scholarships & Fellowships - Howard University](<a href=“http://www.howard.edu/financialaid/grants_scholarships.htm#Freshman]Grants”>http://www.howard.edu/financialaid/grants_scholarships.htm#Freshman) . But it is first come first served until they run out of them.</p>

<p>But a point or few more on the ACT would qualify for more of them.</p>

<p>You’re close at Troy State. Do you have financial need? Would you be considered a URM at some schools? There are some schools that do have awards in such cases. SUNY Buffalo has the Daniel Acker Award, for instance.</p>
