what kinds of scholarships, if any, can I get with these stats?

Paying for College
1

<p>I have a high school GPA of 4.2 weighted, 3.98 unweighted
My class rank is 14 out of 345-top 4%
ACT composite=31
SAT composite=2130
SAT Math1=690
SAT Literature=700
SAT US History=700</p>

<p>I was commended as a national merit scholar for the PSAT and am a National Hispanic Scholar.</p>

<p>I have taken 5 AP classes out of the 7 offered at my school and got 4s and 5s</p>

<p>I volunteered 135 hours for a local Congressman and was then hired by him as a field representative.</p>

<p>My officer positions include: Olympus club class representative 10th grade, Olympus club treasurer 11th grade, FBLA vice president 11th grade, DECA vice president 11th grade.</p>

<p>The activities i was involved with include: AcDec, quiz bowl, FBLA, DECA, NHS, History Day, Model UN, Olympus, Stock Market Game, National Finance Challenge (3rd in state for 2 years), and National Economics Challenge (3rd in state for 2 years, 1st in state 1 year which put me at 35th in the nation).</p>

<p>I’ve put most of my energy into studying ivies which don’t offer scholarships, so I don’t know how other schools work. Would these stats make me eligible for any decent scholarships at good schools or give me something remotely close to a full ride at a state school?</p>

<p>Since you are NHRP, look at this recent thread for scholarships:</p>

<p><a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/hispanic-students/735291-colleges-offering-scholarships-national-hispanic-scholars.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/hispanic-students/735291-colleges-offering-scholarships-national-hispanic-scholars.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>Also, these schools have good merit for URM/Hispanic students: WUSTL Annika Rodriguez, Rice Trustee Diversity, UNC-CH Pogue, CWU Provost’s Special, UWisconsin-Madison Chancellor’s and Powers-Knapp, Dennison Multicultural, NEU Bunche and Lewis. These are a few years old, so there may have been some changes.</p>

<p>If you haven’t already, you should visit the Hispanic Students subforum, there are plenty of resources there for scholarships, summer programs, fly-in opportunities, etc.</p>
