<p>yeah,</p>

<p>the ronbrown scholarship is extremely competitive. Very few people get it, and the application process is tedious. My friend who’s now a freshman at the University of Chicago, had a 3.9 cumulative gpa and a 1430 SAT. but she didn’t get the ronbrown scholarship. getting into harvard is probably easier than getting the ronbrown scholarship. but if you think that you’re very well qualified–then go for it.</p>

<p>Low income and outstanding community service are the keys to winning. High stats are secondary.</p>
