<p>The UHC scholarship is primarily test score based (I was told this from someone who works at the UHC). I received the scholarship when I went to Pitt '01-'05. Then the qualifying score was around 1400 SAT, I am not sure what the ACT equivalent is but I would gues around 31 or 32. I would reccommend you take the SAT and score high to increase your chances. I know many people that received the scholarship and had basically no activities or extra curricular but had good grades and high SAT. I know people who had average SAT or who applied late and had impressive extra curricular but did not receive the scholarship. UHC gives out many tuition scholarships due to Pitt’s huge endowment. Which is why it is so much easier to get assistance from Pitt than somewhere like PSU.</p>
