I don’t know about Arkansas schools specifically, but I would think that they would have fairly generous scholarship opportunities for someone of your academic caliber. Since you are a junior, you have a few months to reseach any schools that might interest you. Almost all colleges have online information concerning scholarships for incoming Freshman, and a lot of them spell out specific ACT scores and GPA’s for whatever scholarships they might offer. Even if you can’t get a “full-ride” from the school, you should qualify for a few local/private scholarships. Your ACT English scores indicate that you are a good writer, so writing a convincing scholarship essay should be fairly easy for you. The small stuff adds up quick! You’ve got some time to retake the tests, research the schools, and hunt for outside scholarship money. There are other cost-cutting measures that you can employ to reduce your bills, too. Don’t give up!
