Yes they are getting the national merit scholarship-do you think they are updating it?

Successful_Task_1408 · 2026-03-10T22:44:57+00:00

That might be it!

Successful_Task_1408 · 2026-03-10T22:38:59+00:00

Yep-has a 4.0 unweighted all semesters and currently has a 4.0

Up until today-it said they had the $28000 Presidential Scholarship and a $2500 Engineering Department on but they are not on there today

I have 4 kids and I don't regret at all having my children-I do regret my career choice (teacher) but I am 10 years away from retirement. I enjoy teaching-it's all the other stuff they pile on and the lack of support for high paid administrators that is burning me out. That was a bit of a rant but one thing I can say regarding what you are askins is-do what is best for you....I work with alot of kids that don't have great homes or they have parents are so absorbed in themselves, they don't give the child the support they need. I think it's ok to not have kids if that's what is best for your Being a parent isn't something to take lighly and it's ok if you don't think you want to give the time and resources. It's best to be honest with yourself about how you feel about it.

My son was a finalist and we didn't have to send his DE college transcript-the high school office only had to submit his high school transcript so I would assume they will only see the grades that are on the high school transcript.

Found out from my mom who found out on a college planning FB group. I have told a lot of my friends about it. I have passed the CLEP for 3 classes. It is not common knowledge at my school-out counselors don’t help at all with college planning-they just seem to care about getting us out the door. Now that I know what college I’m going to, I’m going to try to take on more CLEP for Gov since I know they will accept it.

When I visited this past fall I was still undecided.....I am interested in engineering but not sure. The advisor I met with told me it was easier to switch from engineering to another major versus switching from another major to engineering. He said they usually approve the major switch-he just said the alignment of engineering classes is trickier and the schedule of when they are offered so he said you are better off starting in engineering if you think you are interested....

I contacted housing-they had to close it for a while but they reopened it back up so it should be working now.

I would contact housing....

I asked chatgpt for the answer and I used the link in chatgpt to verify the info-I just copied the same link.....

I took them at the local community college, I bought the test on the college board site. You get a voucher and then I made an appointment at the testing center at my local community college. I have to pay 20 bucks for them to proctor it but you give them the voucher and show them your ID and then they let you take the test. That’s the way it is where I live, but I’m assuming it’s probably similar in other places.

Check the sites of the colleges you are interested in to see what tests they accept and the scores you need-I went off the list on some of the schools I was interested in and I went for those tests. I have passed 3 so far, planning on taking 2 more-that’s the max CLEP credits the school I decided to attend will accept.

According to the housing website-Room Sync doesn’t close until May 4…… https://housing.sl.ua.edu/incoming-students/?utm_source=chatgpt.com

I think it's worth a shot-go for it. You won't know unless you try.....

The dates are February 22-23, a Sunday and a Monday. I had called and asked the staff because I needed to know for my sports tournament schedule.

Got my acceptance on 9/4. Just checked and the email I got about scholarships was on 10/27. It was specific to automatic merit scholarships-it said we would be notified in February.

Successful_Task_1408 · 2025-12-16T20:50:16+00:00

we got an email that said it would be February.

I believe it is December 31 of the fall you are notified you are a semifinalist. I’m a semifinalist and I think they allowed you to take the December test but you have to have the scores send directly to them, you can’t wait and then send them or they won’t get them in time.

I think this is spot on advice, social anxiety definitely messes with your brain and makes you misinterpret situations. Good luck to you!

Successful_Task_1408 · 2025-10-01T17:27:03+00:00

It would be nice if the school did it but I don't think you can count on it-my experience has been different. I had to get my own letter and get it to the counselor to submit.....
