How much scholarship can I get in the USA based on SAT or merit for a Master's?
Merit-based scholarships for master's programs in the USA are usually awarded based on your undergraduate GPA, relevant experience, and sometimes GRE scores - not SAT scores.
With a 2.2 GPA, your chances for merit scholarships are limited, as most universities require a higher GPA for significant awards. For example:
- Bentley University: Merit scholarships for graduates typically range from $8,500 - $19,000/year, but are awarded to applicants with strong academic records.
- Georgetown University: Dean’s Excellence Merit Scholarship offers $7,500 - $11,500/year, mainly to those with a 3.80+ GPA.
Consider alternative funding options like graduate assistantships (which may cover tuition and provide a stipend) or need-based aid, which may have different eligibility criteria.
