Are there any merit based scholarships (full ride) available to 2015-2016 National Hispanic merit scholars?
Look in the Hispanic Students subforum: http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/hispanic-students/
Northeastern U doesn’t give full-ride, but gives $30k/year which is pretty nice.
Does anyone know if NHRP uses College Board’s 100.0 to 4.0 conversion scale? My school only calculates GPA on a 100.0 scale, so I don’t know what that converts to on a 4.0 scale in the eyes of NHRP. There are many conversion scales out there. Because of a borderline 100.0 GPA, it is difficult to figure out whether it meets NHRP’s 3.5 minimum GPA for scholar.
My counselor put my GPA out of 100
I know someone who was offered a full ride to Fordham University last year (NHRP). He didn’t take it, and instead took a very strong offer from RPI (but not full ride).
