Criteria for selection?

The USSSA E.A. Ramsey College Scholarship Program uses multiple criteria in the selection process. Among these are: academic success, athletic success/participation, extracurricular activity demonstration (citizenship), and USSSA involvement above-and-beyond the norm (officiating or helping to run leagues, tournaments, or fund raisers).

Academic success includes overall high school graduating GPA and test results from SAT, ACT, or other pre-college testing., if taken.

Athletic success/participation is heavily slanted toward “USSSA” participation but not restricted to that. Submitter should provide evidence of involvement in high school sports and other associations, as well. Examples are AAU basketball…even if the submitter is submitting for a USSSA fast pitch scholarship.

And, submitters who have experience officiating USSSA sports or helped administer leagues or tournaments are especially rewarded. For helping contribute to USSSA success, we are interested in contributing to yours!

Citizenship is all about involvement in activities of all sorts, not just those restricted to school activities. This might include church activities, social clubs, political involvement, community involvement, etc. We are looking for and proud to recognize outstanding achievement in diverse fields.
