Is one more point really worth thousands?
Sometimes. At Alabama for 2027, ACT 31 is 24,000 dollars a year and ACT 32 is 28,000. At Ole Miss (GPA 3.5 to 3.74), ACT 31 to 32 adds 5,790 a year.

How we work this out
What it does
See which automatic merit scholarship your GPA and SAT or ACT score match at three universities, and what the next point is worth.
Published automatic merit tables: Ole Miss nonresident awards for 2026 entry, Southern Miss Academic Excellence for 2027 entry (GPA 3.0 to 3.24 only), University of Alabama out-of-state and international awards for 2027 entry, and Alabama's 2026 Engineering Leadership Scholarship.
Method
- Your GPA picks the university's GPA band, and your score finds the highest award whose score range includes it, within that university and entry year.
- The next tier is the lowest score in your band with a larger award. At Ole Miss with a GPA of 3.5 to 3.74, ACT 31 gives 15,000 dollars a year and ACT 32 gives 20,790: 5,790 more a year, up to 23,160 over four years if renewed.
- Four-year totals appear only where the university states four years of renewal.
- Anything outside what the university publishes, such as a residency or GPA band it does not list, returns no figure rather than a guess.
