UMinn Scholarships?

OOS has had their fee waived in the past.

do u have to get an email or somehting or does every OOS get it?

@SREE33 - call Admissions with that question. They should be able to direct you on how to get the fee waived.

If it helps my son was admitted to honors college with a 3.91 unweighted GPA, 34 ACT. He gets in state tuition and they offered $1000 merit scholarship as well.

@threebeans They still give the in state tuition scholarship to OOS students?

@jukepuke We are from WI and our states have reciprocity.

How about to other states like CA?

They give the National which used to cover the differential between IS and OOS tuition; however, for the past two years (since the decision to implement OOS tuition hikes) they have capped the National at $10,000. Best to go to the website and see what is offered under the category of University-Wide merit scholarships.

Oh, so I do I still have strong scholarship chances?

Not sure. A lot depends on whether someone OOS with your stats got scholarship money last year.

National used to award for those well under top 10% of class rank but not sure whether they do that anymore. There are other scholarships besides National but National is the big one for OOS. Usually it goes to those who are NMF and others with tippy-top GPA and SAT/ACT scores. Don’t give up hope, however. Your stats are great and you will get into at least 2nd choice CLA and hopefully your first choice :slight_smile:
