My daughter admitted as well from Kansas. Question on OOS merit…are the GPAs in the merit scholarship table for weighted or un-weighted? I am surprised that isn’t defined anywhere? And when do they make final determination on GPA, is it after 1st semester HS senior year or the GPA submitted on transcript with application?
My DD was admitted and got her scholarship letter today for the Presidential Elite Scholarship.
Value of tuition for 4 years
First Year on campus housing
$1000 per year stipend
$2000 one time allowance for summer research or INTL study

Agree it is not clear. But UA uses weighted GPA for OOS scholarships. Also it is GPA at the time of the application per my understanding. Hope that helps.
