Scholarships:
Regents and Presidential Scholarships $7,500-full tuition
Last year, Wartburg awarded nearly 600 Regents and Presidential Scholarships to first-year students valued at about $7 million. Wartburg evaluates merit based scholarships on a combination of a student’s high school grade point average, class rank, and ACT/SAT score. Typically, students who have a high school minimum cumulative GPA of 3.5 and rank in the top 25 percent of their high school class AND have an ACT composite score of 22 (1140 SAT) or higher will receive a Regents or Presidential Scholarship. Students who qualify and choose to participate in one of Wartburg’s Scholarship Days have the opportunity to increase their Regents or Presidential Scholarship. All awards are based on merit and not financial need, are renewable for a maximum of eight terms contingent upon full time enrollment and the maintenance of at least a 2.7 cumulative grade point average.
