Only official test scores from\u00a0ACT\u00ae\u00a0or SAT\u00ae\u00a0are used to consider incoming freshmen students for merit-based scholarships. Marshall University takes the highest ACT composite or SAT combined Math and Evidenced-Based Reading &amp; Writing Score to determine scholarship eligibility for its scholarship programs. Marshall University also combines the highest sub-scores from different test dates (from the same test) to create a superscore total or composite. The superscore total or composite is used when it is higher than the ACT composite or SAT combined Math and Evidence-Based Reading &amp; Writing Score for eligibility determination of the scholarships listed in the chart above.<\/p>\n<p>This scholarship is awarded using a last-dollar methodology and is designed to complement other financial aid resources. Scholarship awards may be adjusted based on other grants, scholarships, waivers, or tuition assistance received. Eligible students may receive funding toward tuition and on-campus room and board costs, with up to $750 per semester available for books, supplies, and other educationally related expenses. This scholarship does not apply to students enrolled in a distance education program.\u00a0They do\u00a0not cover tuition charges from St. Mary\u2019s Center for Education and other third-party agreements with colleges and universities. For additional information, reference the Marshall University Scholarship Policies below.<\/p>\n<h2>Renewable Criteria<\/h2>\n<p>To remain eligible for this scholarship, you must enroll full-time each semester, successfully complete 30 credit hours each academic year, and earn a cumulative GPA of 2.5 at the end of your freshmen year and 2.75 thereafter.
