Presidential Scholarship at Oregon State

I'm looking to go to Oregon State next fall, and I was wondering if anyone else has applied/received the full tuition paying Presidential scholarship, or an equivalent at another state school.

I have:
3.95/4.15 weighted GPA
AP Scholar
Honors Diploma
5 AP Classes
33 ACT
No SAT yet, but probably ~2100-2200
FRC Robotics Team Captain for 2 years, leader for the 3rd
Starting robotics team at another high school
Full time summer internship at Autodesk
Dean's List FRC Award semi finalist
NHS for 1 year
Some volunteering through robotics

Thanks for your help!

Also, I'm planning to do Electrical and Computer Engineering

No chance at financial aid based off of income

Presidential Scholarship at Oregon State

Carfreak -- Presidential is merit aid. I assume you are in state because Presidential is in-state. They have a different scholarship for OOS. My son is a junior with a similar resume to yours and also wants to do ECE. Our plan is to go down this spring for a visit and just ask admissions about his chances. They give 60 awards. Minimum 3.85 GPA or 1900+ SAT (29 ACT), both of which you are well above. I think you have a decent shot. There is also the Academic Achievement Award up to $3500 per year and renewable for 4 years, which I am sure you would get if not the Presidential. Please post if you get one.
