For others reading this thread:
Alabama's application for Fall 2013 is now LIVE. Bama began accepting apps around a week ago (which is about 2 weeks earlier than usual). So, if you're going to apply, do it now....it's fast and easy...no essays or LORs req'd. After you apply, you'll get a follow up email a few days later. Use the info from the email to set up your MyBama acct so you can apply for the scholarships. Although the scholarships are ASSURED for stats, you have to submit the scholarship app.

If a student were to apply with test scores that are for a lower scholarship, then the school will FIRST award that scholarship, BUT, when the student retests and does better, then the school awards the larger one. So, no harm in applying early.
Frankly, it's always better to get your app in early, no matter what your stats are. Any later change in stats will get noted and appropriate scholarship changes as long as they meet the deadlines.
And, since Bama's acceptance rate has dropped significantly (to the low 40s now), it's always best to apply early. those with borderline stats are more likely to get accepted if they apply early. I don't want to cause any fear...generally any student who qualifies for a good scholarship is going to get accepted.
FYI....Seniors must test by the following in order to have THOSE scores count for ASSURED scholarships...
SAT....November exam is the last accepted exam for scholarships
ACT.....Octorber exam is the last accepted exam for scholarships
So, take the Sept and/or Oct ACT....and/or take the Oct and/or Nov SAT.

Are those ASSURED or competitive? It looks like the listed stats are for consideration, but maybe all get it if they have the stats??

UT-Dallas scholarships are not Automatic/Guaranteed.
"The OU Presidential Award is available to Michigan residents only. The Office of Undergraduate Admissions does offer some out-of-state scholarships to entering freshmen students. For more information on those please view the freshmen scholarship flyer at: www.oakland.edu/scholarships."

I have also attempted to calculate the residual cost of attendance (COA) given the scholarship award. NOTE, however, that this was calculated based on each individual colleges published Cost of Attendance, and these estimates may vary in how they are calculated and what costs are included.

What a bummer that the Northeast does not have any representation. The closest school is Maryland.
It's always been difficult to find assured full tuition (or more) scholarships in the NE that aren't NMF related.
