Editor's notes

  • Merit awards come with admission, based on GPA and any scores sent by then. Last cycle, updated scores counted for an increase until June 15. A low score can't cut your award, so testing has no downside here.
  • Alumni dependents get a $1,000 Legacy Scholarship only if they list the relationship on the admission application. Fill that section in.
