<p>I agree that you should retake the SAT if you want to try to get merit scholarships.</p>
<p>Note that UVA no longer gives merit scholarships, however. The only merit scholarship for UVA is the Jefferson Scholarship, administered by the Jefferson Foundation. My daughter received some additional information today after being nominated by her high school. About 3,500 high schools are eligible to nominate one or two students for the scholarship. About 100 go to the finalist weekend, and about 25 will be offered scholarships.</p>
