Editor's notes
- Ignore the Aug. 1 deadline. The date that matters is March 1, when merit scholarship consideration closes. If you're a Kentucky resident, every admitted on-campus freshman gets an award, and the amount rises with your unweighted GPA.
- One test score can be worth $2,000 a year here. EKU doesn't need the ACT to admit you, but a 3.8 with an ACT of 28 or SAT of 1310 moves you from the $7,000 award to the $9,000 Regent's Award. You can send new scores to raise your award until June 30.
