The College Board National Recognition Programs create pathways to college for students from underrepresented communities. The programs awards academic honors and connect students to universities and scholarship opportunities around the country. Students who take the Preliminary SAT, or PSAT, and identify as Hispanic American or Latino are considered for the Hispanic Recognition Program. They must meet the minimum PSAT score, which varies each year, as well as earn a cumulative GPA of 3.5 or higher by the middle of their junior year to qualify.
