*What I am looking for is a full tuition scholarship.
SAT I: 1900 *

Are you asking for a scholarship that covers tuition, and YOU’LL pay for room, board, books, personal expenses, etc? If so, your family will need to contribute about $15k+ per year.

If you major in engineering, then the University of Alabama would give you free tuition plus 2500 per year for a 1330 M+CR & 3.5+ GPA…if you apply by Dec 1st. (Alabama is accepting apps now. Application is easy [Undergraduate Admissions - The University of Alabama](http://gobama.ua.edu/) )

Non-Residents (including int’ls)

Students who have a 30-31 ACT or 1330-1390 SAT (math and verbal scores only) and at least a 3.5 cumulative GPA will receive a tuition supplement to bring their University-level scholarship offer up to the value of tuition. In addition, they will receive $2,500 per year for four years.

To get a tuition scholarship at other schools with engineering, you’ll need higher stats. You’ll likely need at least a 1400+ M+CR SAT score.

If you’re looking for free tuition, room, board, books, that will be hard to find…I can think of one at UA-Huntsville, and you’d need at least a 1490 M+CR.
