I just wanted to make sure that you know that to get the scholarship you have to ...
Apply to UA by Dec 1 (so do it now)

very ez online app...takes like 3 minutes!! No essay!
Do the online scholarship application by Dec 1. You may have to wait a few days after you apply to UA to get your mybama logon ID to "log in" to do the scholarship app (another reason to apply NOW to UA...

). The scholarship app is also very ez.
Make sure that your SAT/ACT is sent to UA
Make sure that your HS transcript is sent to UA
Also apply to UHP (university honors program).
Honors College - University Honors
You'll get accepted to UHP

and then you'll have access to the honors perks...priority registration, UHP classes, honor dorms, etc. The application to UHP is very easy and requires a short (like one paragraph) essay.
Feel free to also apply to any other honors program...they can be found thru the same link. Look on the gray stripe for the other links
You should get your acceptance within a short time after UA receives your stats.
Your scholarship info should come shortly after you do the scholarship app and UA has received your HS transcript and ACT or SAT records.
I have 2 boys at UA, and they love it.
Good luck. Let us know what happens.
