Hardin Simmons University Recommended Scholars Program

For the incoming freshmen class of 2020, HSU will begin to admit and award merit aid to students based on the recommendations of their high school counselors and principals. We believe the high school academic record and the endorsement of trusted high school faculty and staff who know the student’s potential and capabilities are better predictors of college success than an ACT or SAT score.  Students can be recommended for this program by his/her high school teachers, counselors, or campus principal.
