NCAA Football Scholarships (Is their a difference between athletic & academic)? Is the quantity of NCAA scholarships given to each team limited to athletic scholarships or to all players on the team. For example, say someone receives an Academic scholarship to a school, tries out for the football team and is selected, does he count against the cap? Is their a specific NCAA rule for a situation like this or is this a possible loop-hole for academically gifted football players?

Is there such thing as a full academic scholarship to a 4 year college? I know there are little grant scholarships worth anywhere from $500 to a few thousand dollars.

How com all scholarships aren't based on academic talent or financial need? I have nothing against minorities, but why are so many of the best scholarships only available to non-whites? This upsets me and I find it hard to believe that it's legal to exclude whites from scholarships because of race, but apparently it is since so many schools do it. Wouldn't race relations in the US be better if we just tried to help people in need and those who have talent, regardless of race?
Private School Academic Scholarships? I'm looking into going to private school for highschool. However, my parents don't want to pay, and we don't qualify for financial aid.

What colleges offer best academic scholarships? Since I can hardly pay by myself for a college, I have to find one that offers best academic scholarships. I have just finished my first semester with a 4.00 GPA at one accredited 4-year public university. My desired and current major is marketing. I like it here, but I am not sure my current University will reward me with an improved scholarship. Therefore I have to start searching for a place to transfer, just in case. I want to go to best college possible, since I believe I can do this well anywhere. What are the best colleges that offer good academic scholarships? Thank you in advance, Peace
Question about athletic/academic scholarships? Well I transferred into another school (Miami Beach Senior High) to have a chance at playing baseball again. This school has a specific program (IB) that is very intriguing to colleges and Im in it. I have a 3.63 weighted/4.6 unweighted GPA and it is likely I'll get a scholarship when I do all my requirements for high school (community services, clubs, etc.). Im gonna play baseball for this school. They were a really bad baseball team last year (4 wins/ 14 losses) due to the fact that they are really young and all the seniors are out so the juniors will have to be the leaders and Im an incoming junior. I'm a really good baseball player, wanted by 6 out of the 18 schools I had in mind to transfer to but I chose Miami Beach because I wanted a chance to start immediately (since the other school had banned me from the team due to an argument b/w my dad and the coach) and shine into the baseball player everyone wants to see in me. Its been said by many people that Im already a varsity type player on freshman/sophomore years. I was wondering, this is hypothetically speaking here...If I were to do good in my junior and senior years playing here, would I be able to get a athletic scholarship even if the team is bad these next two years (b/c who knows if they have a turn around season these two up coming years)? I know that if I get the academic scholarship, I'll obviously make the right decision in picking that one but if I get both then I will choose both but I was just wondering can I get an athletic scholarship even if the team is bad? (btw this school is a school that has a history of top athletes getting athletic scholarships to top universities)
What type of academic scholarships are out there? So I just graduated from highschool with a 4.12 GPA and a score of 28 on my ACT I was also part of a lot of extra curricular activities. The college that I want to go to isn't offering very much help at all and I need to know if there are some academic scholarships out there that I could apply for. I also took the ACT again and I am hoping for a higher score... So any suggestions of scholarships to apply for or and additional advice would be much appreciated. Thanks
Full Academic Scholarships? Do schools give out full scholarships for academics, much like a school would give out an athletic scholarship? I'm not talking an awards or any $1500 scholarships. I'm asking if a school will give you a full ride based on academics only?
Can scholarships be taken away if you get married during college? I know federal grants and ad would be taken away. But would most scholarships such as the Tennessee Hope Scholarship, Departmental Scholarships at the college, or academic scholarships (that have nothing to do with your financial status) be able to be taken away?
Are scholarships from colleges only based on merit? I'm looking at a few schools, however, I am worried about the money issues. When colleges give out scholarships, do they give academic scholarships considering grades, SAT scores, GPA, etc or is only based on merit and PSAT Scores? I am not quite sure how it works! If anyone is willing to explain me some more detail it would be greatly appreciated! Scholarships from the school itself, not scholarships that you need to apply for from a program, etc. Thanks!

Are there college scholarships available based on SAT/ACT scores alone? My son's high school GPA is 3.1 but his SAT score was over 2000. Every academic scholarship we've looked at so far for students who score over 2000 on SAT also requires a minimum GPA of 3.5. Does anyone know of a college that awards academic scholarships for high SAT scores that doesn't require a high GPA? He is planning to major in secondary education/history.
Can I get an academic scholarship to Arizona State? I'm going to be a junior and my GPA is a 3.8174 but I want to know the chance that I get a academic scholarship.

What are the odds of getting an academic vs. athletic scholarship? Having a discussion with a neighbor. He thinks that athletic scholarships are easier than academic ones. I have done some searching on the web and found out, roughly, some odds of the sports but not the academic ones. I myself, believe that the academic are a little easier than the athletic ones. (this doesn't include the easier $500-1000 ones offered thru various workplaces). Does anyone know the odds of either? Or of a website that would give that information? All help and information is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

ROTC scholarships and academic probation? I'm about to ask a lot of questions and they may seem jumbled - please forgive me, I'm a little bit anxious and flustered. I'm an Army ROTC cadet, soon to be a sophomore. In my freshman year I applied for and received a 4-year scholarship, which would pay my tuition/fees as well as a book stipend and monthly subsistence stipend. However, I had a tough time both semesters during freshman year - my GPA was a meager 2.3 first semester. My second semester GPA was even worse, at 1.8. This brought my cumulative GPA down to a 2.05 - just barely above the 2.0 required to maintain my scholarship. Already, I've changed my major to something different so I can do better. I even purchased my fall semester textbooks during the summer so I could get a head start. Classes start on August 25th, and as of yet, my tuition balance is not showing my scholarship money, and my regular checking account has not shown the standard ROTC book stipend. I also confirmed that other cadets in my battalion have already received their stipends. Does this mean that I am on academic probation, or, god forbid, that I have lost my scholarship? I am certain the requirements for my battalion are to maintain a cumulative GPA of 2.0, but does that also extend to semester GPA? What exactly does ROTC scholarship academic probation mean? As far as I know it means that I don't receive any scholarship benefits (tuition, stipends, etc) for this semester, and I have until next semester to bring my GPA back up to an acceptable level. I know I can do this, and will accept nothing less than straight A's. I definitely have not received any phone calls from the cadre or emails or regular mail or anything to expressly indicate I'm on probation or have lost my scholarship. I know they would expect me to know these things on my own, but all the same, do ROTC cadre normally notify cadets on academic probation? Thanks in advance for any replies. I'm really afraid I may have screwed up my chances for a great education and career.

What can I do to heighten my chances at getting an academic scholarship to college? Okay, so I'm only 12 (entering 7th grade this year) and I would do nearly anything to receive a scholarship to college so I can study web design and graphic design (basically visual arts). I'm trying to hold a very high GPA until I graduate from college. I've always had a 4.0 my whole short education, and I have been told that there is more to getting a scholarship than good grades. What can I do (starting now) to really boost my chances at a scholarship? I know how silly this question sounds, and I have been laughed at for planning ahead so far, but I'd still like to know. Not to brag, but with a 125 IQ... I don't know if that'll get me a scholarship. *shrug* I really want a scholarship, but I don't want to have to CONSTANTLY be studying. I want to be able to spend time with my friends, too! Thanks a bunch, everyone who answered or is answering this question!

Is it okay to use your ethnicity to obtain academic scholarships? I am 25% Puerto Rican but appear caucasian. However, I am considering going to Grad School and would like to use my Puerto Rican ethnicity to obtain a scholarship. Background - I grew up in an upper middle class family and received a solid education. However, it sure would be nice to leave grad school without any additional debt - I didn't use my ethnicity in undergrad so I have about $15K left to pay off in loans.
