ECE Outstanding Freshman Scholarship
Established 1996
Description:
These scholarships are awarded to the top freshman applicants. The awards are made based on their high school GPA and on their SAT and ACT scores. The scholarships were set up to recognize the students’ outstanding promise for success in their college careers.
Requirements:
- Freshman in ECE
Selection Process :
All applications are reviewed for the incoming freshmen scholarships. Applicants are ranked on the College of Engineering PGPA (predicted GPA), which is a calculation based on the student's high school GPA, class ranking, and ACT/SAT scores. The number is weighted to judge math scores higher as they are more relevant to the study of engineering. The ECE department solicits (via email) further information, including an essay and a letter of reference from the top 75 applicants. The scholarship committee reviews these essays and letters in order to decide the recipients of the freshmen scholarships.
Award:
The recipient(s) will be recognized during an annual Student Awards Banquet. All student recipients are featured on the second floor of the ECE Building's Student Honors Wall.
