Merit scholarships with no test score required
232 colleges in our verified dataset publish merit awards whose grids require a GPA but no ACT or SAT score. 72 of those colleges guarantee the award automatically for students who meet the published GPA and other conditions; 160 automatically consider students, with amounts that are not guaranteed. Each row shows the college's top GPA-only award. All figures come from the colleges' own published pages, verified 2026-11-02.
Guaranteed automatic awards
Each award below is labelled guaranteed automatic because the college's own page explicitly says the award is automatic for students who meet the published criteria. Amounts are exact published figures. The award shown is the top published award at this college that the band on this page reaches — its remaining conditions (GPA, residency, deadlines) are on its row.

Common questions
Do these colleges require test scores for admission?
This page is only about merit awards: the colleges below publish merit grids that use GPA alone. Admission requirements are separate — check the college's admissions page for its test policy.
How many of these awards are guaranteed?
72 of the 232 colleges guarantee their GPA-only award automatically when the student meets the published criteria. The rest consider students automatically but do not guarantee the amount.
Why is the GPA threshold different at every college?
Each college sets its own grid. The threshold on each row is the lowest GPA at which that college's top GPA-only award is reached; lower tiers at the same college may start lower — the college's full grid is linked from every row.
