Check this website out!

If you want to quickly compare the merit scholarships offered by various colleges, you need to check out this website: www.guaranteed-scholarships.com. Although this site is just a list, it can be a useful tool for comparison purposes.

It's important to know that most schools offer automatic scholarships based on academic performance and ACT or SAT scores. If you know what you need ahead of time, you can prepare and score accordingly. Higher grades or test scores almost guarantee more money. Take a look at this example:

Visit Hamline University's website HERE.  You'll notice that a mere three point difference (25 to 28) ACT will earn you $2,000 more each year. That's $8,000 more over the course of four years. If you knew this before you took your ACT, wouldn't you try harder to get a higher score? 

Take a look at guaranteed-scholarships.com. Find out what you need to do to get more money for college. 

Have a great day!
