<p>The SAT score hurts . . . Full rides are not easy to come by and the fact that you haven’t given your locale makes it nearly impossible to tell you anything about scholarships. Some state schools will give out close to free-rides but under the merit-aid umbrella and other than class-rank your brag sheet is average. If your family makes under 60K and you have a hook you haven’t mentioned perhaps you might get a close-to-full need-based grant, but again, unless there is some unique EC/talent you have that you haven’t listed I don’t see the latter happening either . . . good luck though!</p>

<p>But it looks like only Jackson State and Prairie View A&M out of that list would be the ones which your stats could get the full or near-full ride. Higher SAT or ACT scores would open up more possibilities.</p>

<p>Your test scores aren’t high enough for large scholarships to most places that give them.</p>

<p>you could get free tuition at UA-Birmingham, but I think that’s only for about 12 credits per semester, which isn’t enough to graduate in 4 years. </p>

<p>Troy university would give you free tuition. </p>

<p>To have a chance at many full tuition scholarships, you’d need at least a 1400 Math + CR SAT or an ACT 32+.</p>

<p>What state are you in? There may be some lesser schools in your state that may give good-sized merit scholarships for your stats?</p>

<p>What state are you in?</p>

<p>What is your major?</p>

<p>What is your situation? How much will your family pay? </p>

<p>Are you low income?</p>

<p>What is your M+CR SAT? That’s what scholarships are often based on.</p>

<p>ECs don’t really matter much for your situation. If you had high test scores and were competing for a highly competitive full ride to a top school, then ECs would come into play.</p>

<p>you need to practice and retest…sign up for both the SAT and ACT for Sept, Oct, Nov.</p>

<p>UA Birmingham’s Blazer Elite scholarship is $15,000 per year for GPA of 3.0 and ACT of 28. Remaining OOS cost of attendance is probably around $10,000 per year, but it does vary both on living situation and number of credits per semester (need to average 15 credits per semester to graduate in four years).</p>

<p>University of Arkansas - Monticello would give near full scholarship</p>
