<p>My SAT is 2210; Rank No.1; GPA 4.6/4.0.</p>
<p>Is the Gold Pegasus award the next best to National Merit? I know National Merit Finalists get a full ride at UCF and USF. I am only NM commended.</p>
<p>My d had essentially same stats as you: 4.6/4.0, 35/36 ACT, #1 in class, and she was also commended. She was offered Pegasus Gold (in-state), and then the Honors Program offered her another $1,000/year. She’s at UF, however. UCF didn’t have her major: chemical engineering.</p>

<p>Yup, the Gold Pegasus Scholarship is the next highest. I don’t know what the additional $1000 from the Honors college is. I got the National Merit and they tend not to award you anymore scholarships because of how much it is. You get the scholarship money the second week of school.</p>
<p>Hey! You should get the “Provost Scholarship”, like me. Your SAT score was 60pts higher than mine and you have around the same GPA I have. The provost scholarship is better than the Gold Pegasus; I got $20,000 ($2,500 per semester.) Just got it in the mail today. Good luck!</p>
