<p>I recently took the SAT, and I am very disappointed with my score. However, my best section was writing and I am happy with how I did on that portion. Are there any scholarships specifically for decent writing scores? (I got a 710).</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>I don’t think there are any scholarships for any one part of the SAT and especially writing since it is a fairly new section. Also, I know in my daughter’s senior class of 300 there are at least 4 students with 800’s on the writing section.</p>
<p>@Moreover:
I’m sorry to add the question. Is there any scholarship for SAT on the whole?</p>
<p>There’s something called the National Merit Scholar / National Achievement Scholar (it has a bunch of different formats) whose forum is [url=<a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/national-merit-scholarships/]here[/url”>National Merit Scholarships - College Confidential Forums]here[/url</a>] and whose website is [url=<a href=“http://www.nationalmerit.org/]here[/url”>http://www.nationalmerit.org/]here[/url</a>]. But you have to take the PSAT previously and score above a certain qualifying score determined by your home state (I believe it is in the junior year of high school) and then “confirm” that score with a similar showing on the SAT.</p>
<p>Alabama, Auburn, Troy, LSU, Ole Miss, Utah State, and Ohio University all give significant scholarships based on SAT + a qualifying GPA.</p>
<p>I think Sharon is an international and wants some scholarships to pay for NU - she applied ED.</p>
<p>I don’t think there are many private scholarships for int’ls in the US. She might need to look for scholarships in her own country and/or maybe from a club/group in the US that are her nationality.</p>
<p>Sharon, what country are you from?</p>
<p>I’m from China. Thank you for knowing what I want!</p>
