This is all I got for college?

I made a 30 act superscored, 4.0 unweighted in all pre-ap and ap classes, tons of extracurricular activities, awards from peers and administrators, etc.

From UGA I only was offered a $1,000 scholarship renewable for 4 year. And fom west Georgia I was only offered a one time $2,000 scholarship. Does this sound right...?

    Yes, public universities are usually pretty stingy with scholarships. Private schools tend to give more merit-based aid.

    Scholarships are based on financial need more than grades. So it depends on what money they figure your family can come up with. (Note, it doesn't matter if your family is willing to help or not.) The republicans are doing everything they can to cut financial aid programs, so there's less money all around.

    Did you fill out a FAFSA? Have you applied for every scholarship you can? There's lots of them out there that your college may not even know about.
