    1. 1200 SAT or 27 ACT
    2. Clubs, Sports, and other Organizations (Leadership Positions are Bonus)
    3. 3.6 GPA Unweighted preferred

    UNR Statement: Completing the application is important to be eligible for campus-based scholarships if you do not receive a national scholarship. The University of Nevada, Reno Army ROTC program will extend opportunities for campus-based scholarships to anyone who completed the National Scholarship Application and did not receive a National Scholarship but put UNR as one of their choices. The UNR Campus Scholarship Board is much looser on its selection process. There is no guarantee you will receive a scholarship. However, there is a guarantee you won’t receive if you don’t apply.
