成人头条

What鈥檚 the best way to spread some love to college-searching families as February approaches? Did you say scholarship dollars? Done. We鈥檙e thrilled to announce 成人头条 has adjusted the deadline for freshmen merit and academic scholarship consideration to Friday, March 1, 2024 for high school seniors.

For students who haven鈥檛 yet applied, dedicating just 10-15 minutes to complete our and paying the application fee means they鈥檒l be automatically considered for 成人头条 State鈥檚 largest comprehensive scholarship program. Take a peek at our chart to see what scholarships you'd qualify for based on your ACT/SAT scores and/or GPA. If you qualify, our Financial Aid team will soon have an official award letter on its way to you! No strings attached and it gives you plenty of time to decide by May 1, 2024 鈥� the national college decision day 鈥� whether or not wearing black and yellow is destined to be part of your college future.

It鈥檚 also important to note this year our Office of Financial Aid worked some magic and is able to offer students an academic scholarship based on their unweighted high school GPA. That means if you haven鈥檛 had an opportunity to take the ACT or SAT, or perhaps didn鈥檛 score in a qualifying range for our freshmen merit scholarships, you鈥檝e still got a great shot at an academic scholarship based on how you鈥檝e been doing in school thus far. We know that standardized tests aren鈥檛 always a great measure of a student鈥檚 abilities, so we鈥檙e excited to extend an award for students who are excelling in the classroom already.

While our university has seen recent extraordinary growth 鈥� including the three largest freshmen classes in the university鈥檚 128-year history occurring in the last three years alone 鈥� we鈥檙e excited to give even more students the opportunity to join Shocker Nation and give them a start with a four-year scholarship offer. Our niche is helping students pursue their academic goals and chase their professional dreams through applied learning experiences. Last year Shockers had more than 8,000 internships and on-campus positions with 600 employers, earning $30+ million in wages. If you鈥檝e held off on applying for college because you鈥檙e not sure if you want to start your career first, we can help you do both by assisting with college funding along the way through the combined power of scholarships and paid applied learning.

By the way, our fall 2024 freshmen will be the first class of Shockers who get to enjoy the Shocker Success Center and the in the Marcus Welcome Center. Both of these new facilities alone represent more than $20 million in investments which are laser-focused on educational and career outcomes for our students.

There鈥檚 no reason to wait longer on that admission application! Students are receiving scholarship awards weekly so get started on this process now to claim your share.
