<p>Does anyone have info on MSU alumni distinguished? What is it/how are you invited?
I have a 35 ACT, 4.45 GPA, and rank 3/400. What are the chances i could get it?</p>
<p>MSU’s merit page:</p>
<p>[Academic</a> Merit Scholarships | Michigan State University Office of Admissions](<a href=“http://admissions.msu.edu/finances/scholarships_merit.asp]Academic”>http://admissions.msu.edu/finances/scholarships_merit.asp)</p>
<p>There are 15, you need to apply by Nov. 1 and they’ll choose who to invite to compete for it based on your application. Apparently you have to take an exam to compete. Looks like they invite at least 130 to compete given the number of runner-up scholarships that follow on that page.</p>
<p>Perhaps someone here will have personal experience with it. You have very strong stats, apply by Nov. 1 and see what happens. Doesn’t say if it is purely by the exam or if other things matter like ECs, leadership etc.</p>
