MSU welcomes largest incoming class of Presidential Scholars

Mississippi State University has welcomed 42 exceptional students as its newest Presidential Scholars. The 2022-23 Presidential Scholars are now the largest class to be recognized with the university's most prestigious undergraduate scholarships. Presidential Scholars are known for their academic skills, creativity and desire to excel. They are among the elite students in the U.S. who enroll at MSU to further their goals as part of the prestigious Shackouls Honors College. Earnings from endowment-level gifts for Presidential Scholarships help cover the cost of attending MSU over the course of four years. The experience provides a one-time educational enrichment scholarship for study abroad opportunities, internships or other qualified academic pursuits, an undergraduate research fellowship award and mentoring opportunities. To qualify, applicants must have a minimum 30 ACT/1330 SAT score, as well as have graduated with a minimum core or overall 3.75 high school GPA (based on a 4.0 scale). Recipients are expected to maintain an overall 3.4 GPA while in their respective academic majors. Presidential Scholars have opportunities to interact with members of the land-grant institution's extensive research faculty and be part of the honors college's summer-study program at Oxford University in England, among other enhanced learning experiences. Learn more about the Shackouls Honors College and its Office of Prestigious External Scholarships at www.honors.msstate.edu. MSU is Mississippi's leading university, online at www.msstate.edu.
