Students who score below 20 on the ACT will not be submitted to the Board for approval. These awards vary in value per year and may be awarded for four years. Some scholarships are awarded based on an individual's talent. If you need assistance in completing the application you should seek help from your high school guidance counselor, or the Office of Student Financial Assistance. For example, some students receive talent scholarships in addition to academic scholarships.
All applicants receive a letter of award or denial.
These letters are usually mailed in February. Both are equally important. Ask your counselor to give general rank. Students with a minimum 28 ACT composite score and 3.5 or better grade point average who are active in school and exhibit good character and citizenship receive the larger scholarship offers. The highest score must be submitted by student to the Scholarship Committee prior to the application deadline.
