Although the other answers may point you into a general direction, it will be nearly impossible to gain a full scholarship with your GPA since full financial aid is primarily available for top colleges like Harvard, Princeton, Amherst and Yale. Your GPA will not qualify for admittance at those schools.

If you follow the advise from the other posters and apply to various colleges, you may indeed get some financial aid, but it will never be a full ride scholarship based on your GPA. You may have to still pay the majority of your colleges costs like tuition, room and board.

I'm sorry if that is not the answer you are looking for, but it is the most accurate one posted thus far.

All the Best.

Pick a college you would like to go to (you can do this through Collegevine) and call them and talk to them to see how you can get accepted and receive financial aid. Good Luck!

If you are using common app, you can apply to an American University and apply for financial aid through FAFSA. You can also search on FAFSA to get more details. Just make sure you applying to a university
