SAT, GPA and award value
| Award | SAT reference | GPA or other academic rule | Published value |
|---|---|---|---|
| TSU Renaissance | 1300+ | SAT 1300 OR weighted GPA 3.75; out-of-state amount | $8,500/year |
| 1912 Heritage | 1200–1290 | SAT or weighted GPA 3.25–3.74; out-of-state amount | $6,500/year |
A published SAT score alone does not establish the exact award: compare the corresponding tier, GPA rule and entry year on the official page.
Can an international freshman receive it?
The university publishes an international student scholarship route or confirms international merit eligibility. Individual awards still depend on admission, document review and the rules for your entry term.
Extra conditions and deadlines
Renaissance SAT 1300 or weighted GPA 3.75; Heritage SAT 1200–1290 or weighted GPA 3.25–3.74. Page explicitly includes international students; confirm visa-specific process.
A qualifying score is not an award offer. Confirm official SAT score rules, GPA conversion, renewal requirements and the current intake directly with the university.
