Isn’t it true that at Purdue scholarships are distributed evenly throughout its programs? For example, one student may be selected for a scholarship in the nursing or agriculture school but not in the engineering school (a more selective and competitive program). I was told this by a Purdue admissions counselor. Also, is the ACT score so heavily weighted that if you don’t have anything 35 and above there is absolutely no way you’re going to receive merit aid?? A friend of mine got the Trustee’s scholarship with an ACT 30 and strong academic profile otherwise. However, that was 5 years ago.
