Bad test scores but I’m keeping my fingers crossed. Feel like I should hear something soon. Its been two weeks.
@cnrsmom I also saw my DS Provost scholarship in the portal today. Not sure when it showed up. I found it listed on the right side of the “student center” page, under “to do list”. Have not received anything in the mail yet.
Congrats on those getting Provost! If you don’t mind me asking, what are your stats? I ask because I just received the Pegasus Gold which, while I am thankful to receive anything, I am disappointed as I thought that I would get the Provost with a 34 ACT and 4.5 GPA.
My DS was accepted last month and we have heard nothing on scholarship offers. He hasn’t submitted his Honors College app yet. I’m curious because he received a 30K scholarship offer to USF already and judging by the other offers in this thread, I half expected an offer of some sort by now. He is top 10%, GPA of 6+, 1540 SAT. Of course, this is the first time we are going through this so I’m not sure what to expect. Just sharing for perspective.

Also, on a side note, does anyone know the tiers of scholarships UCF offers? They don’t reveal much about the range of scholarship money they give out on their website.
in the “to do”…she received a letter in the mail this week confirming. She had to do online and extend the acceptance date for the award to 5/1. She’s still waiting on other acceptances before she decides.
