In addition, the financial awards are substantial.

To qualify for the Honors Program, your students would need an ACT score of 26 and a GPA of 3.5. This scholarship awards full tuition, fees, books, on-campus housing, and $750 in Scholar Dollars per semester for up to four years (minus other federal, state, and/or private scholarships or grants).

To qualify for the PLC scholarship, students need an ACT score of 21. This program awards full tuition, fees, on-campus housing, and $750 in Scholar Dollars per semester for up to four years (minus other federal, state, and/or private scholarships or grants).
