UA and UAH both have a 1330 cut off for a scholarship level but then it varies wrt the score necessary for the next level.
At UAH the next cut off is 1440, however at UA a 1360 moves your scholarship from $15,000 to $24,000. At Troy, a 3.7 GPA and 1360 may mean full tuition. Though if your uncle can afford it (the total would still be well under the budgrt he gave you), UAlabama Honors at near-full tuition is WAY better than Troy (even Honors).
In any case that’s A LOT of money for just 30 extra points so I’d say to go for the December SAT.
UAlabama will honor the highest SAT sent and the December SAT “counts” if you list them as one of your 4 recipients and list the test date on your application. (So you’d list your 1st test score&date + a 2nd date of Dec 4, so they’d know a score is pending.)
Don’t forget to apply to these three universities’ Honors Colleges and to check out U Birmingham.
