There's no definite answer to that question. Depends on the school, your upside, GPA, etc. Your PR is the least important thing. No cares what you did in high school. What matters is what the coach thinks you can do in college. I'd much rather give a scholarship to a 6'4"/175 15' vaulter with a 3.8 GPA than a 5'5"/135 16' vaulter with a 2.5 GPA. But that's just me.

Apply for financial aid. It's easier to get and more stable.

Work on your spelling first. It doesn't matter how high you jump if you can't pass your classes.

Some schools base their scholarships off of a specific, height, and may grant a minor/major aid,

and then you'll have your other schools who give you financial aid based off of the amount of points you score for your team.

But really the previous replies before mine are very correct, you have to be specific with the school, the # of vaulters they already have, the conference the school you're looking at is in, what Division the school is, so on and so on...
