<p>im gettin kinda worried... i have a 96/100 GPA (~top 10%) 2050 SAT (1350/1600) and 10 AP classes... and really hoping for a scholarship since im not eligible for financial aid</p>
<p>did they come out yet? or are they going too soon?</p>
<p>If you applied for the Honors application you'd get in. Those scholarships are given from $2,500 a year-$5,000 a year. If you didn't, then you'll definitely be a scholar and get $2,500 a year.</p>
<p>cool i got an honors today with 3,000... are the ones who get 5,000 a year the smartest honors acceptees?</p>
<p>Maybe. I'm not positive about how it works but I know that people who get 1300+ are generally accepted into the honors program. I never thought I'd go to Buffalo, I went last minute so I never submitted an honors application. My old SAT score was a 1390 and they gave me the highest amount they offered to scholars, so yeah, the scholarships are strictly based on SAT scores.</p>
<p>I didn't know there was an honors app., but I got a letter today saying I was selected to participate in their UB Scholars Program and that they';; give me $1500 for four years. Does someone have a link for the honors app.?</p>
<p>there is no honors app.. i think, since i never filled one out and got into honors</p>
<p>$4,350 a year</p>
<p>i think theres an app for the highest level honors program, but there's a minumum SAT requirement that i didnt qualify for so i didnt bother looking into it</p>
<p>(The sat requirement is somehwre above 1440, bc that's what my score was)</p>
<p>I got a 3K scholarship...I think I like my 21K at Pittsburgh better.</p>
<p>i didn't apply for the honors college, but I got in....my SAT is sooooooo low, I have no idea how I got in!</p>
<p>Yeah, I don't think there's a separate application for honors.</p>
<p>dude, the highest honors program is the </p>
<p>"distinguished honors scholars

<p>so, yeah, there definitely is, but ONLY for the top program</p>
<p>(which i only missed by 30 points on the SAT. go figure. bitter.)</p>
<p>Hah I guess I missed it by 10 points!</p>
<p>i only got $1500, any ways to milk out more cash from them?</p>
<p>Hint that you got a better deal from another school</p>
<p>need-based financial aid?</p>
<p>have an affair with the dean, and then blackmail him/her (depending on what your into)</p>
<p>yea...i got the distinguished honors scholarship but i'm still waiting to here from other colleges....UB must have some pretty extensive funding for their honors programs</p>
<p>UB is one of the better funded schools in the SUNY system. their alumni's donate billions because they were so happy with their education and experience there. its a great school.</p>
<p>if you dont know much about UB, a few of its noteable alumnis are the ceo of coca-cola, wolf blitzer (from cnn), founder of miramax films, founder of paramount films, and many many many more famous figures.</p>
