Full rides are usually reserved for the top 1% of applicants to state schools and they are pretty competitive. For SUNY Buffalo, I applied to their presidential scholarship, which is a complete full ride, but I didn’t even make it past the first cut, probably because my GPA was too low ("minimum GPA is 95 UW, along with a 1470 SAT or 34 ACT) I had a 92 UW and a 1520 SAT (CR/M) and a 35 ACT and 10 AP classes
