My D applied for several of the scholarships Nikara references above, but she hasn’t heard back yet, so I don’t know how “hard” they are to get. It is my experience however that yes, in general it takes a “stellar” GPA as well as involvement outside the classroom to be awarded scholarships. Most of those listed above have a 3.2 - 3.5 GPA required to even apply, so I am guessing the awardees exceed those minimums by a significant margin.

Do you have more affordable options available?
