Personalized Merit Aid Search
Search for colleges where your GPA and test scores give you the best opportunities for merit aid.
Matches use estimated GPA and test thresholds — not admission or scholarship guarantees.
Browse all colleges, costs & merit aid →Merit aid when you don’t qualify for need-based aid
Not qualifying for need-based financial aid doesn’t mean paying the full college price. Merit scholarships reward academic achievement and, depending on the college, other talents—not financial need. They can reduce college costs for families whose income or assets limit need-based aid, and scholarships generally don’t need to be repaid.
MeritMore’s personalized merit aid search helps you compare colleges where your grades and SAT or ACT score may make you a strong candidate. Compare costs after scholarships, not just award amounts: a larger scholarship doesn’t always mean a lower price. Awards aren’t guaranteed; check each college’s eligibility, deadlines, and renewal requirements.
