International Student looking for full ride

@MYOS1634 Do you think Howard University is a guaranteed full ride if I hit my target score? I’m leaning towards it because one guy from my school got in on a full ride for Fall 2017 and we have the same GPA but he was valedictorian (sucks) and I have better ECs and sports(I think?) but he was more into competitions. His SAT: 1450.

Another girl got in too but it was $36000 in aid with a 1340 SAT. I definitely have better stats than her.

Also I think Minerva at KGI is a guaranteed full ride, but at least they don’t need the SAT.
