<p>I'm applying EA and judging by my last chances thread, most people on this forum think I'll get scholarship money to USD. When will I find out the scholarship I received? Will I find out in December when I get my acceptance decision or will it be later in the year when RD decisions come out?</p>
<p>Thanks for the help guys.</p>
<p>Two years ago, DD was notified of merit in the acceptance packet. FA notification was later.</p>
<p>Son received scholarship with admissions letter. If you don't get it then, you won't get it.</p>
<p>One thing to keep in mind - if you apply EA this year that the time frame can vary of being notified. One son received his packet the week before Christmas - but a family friend received his packet with scholarship in mid-February. Just depends on how many early applicants they get and can process. </p>
<p>Not everyone with equal stats gets the scholarship money there - better bet if you are in top 5% of your class with excellent stats.</p>
<p>What were your stats/your kids stats that got money?</p>

<p>I was pretty surprised that I received an award. I didn't think my stats were that stellar. I got the Trustee's Scholarship totaling $17,500 per year.</p>
<p>Pretty good GPA, but wow, thats nice with 17k.</p>
<p>I too was not expecting the Trustee Scholarship. Good job man!</p>
<p>What were your stats, skybax?, if you don't mind me asking.</p>
<p>Cum GPA is around 3.5 unweighted (but first quarter of this year was 3.91) and the SAT that I sent to them was a 1990.</p>
<p>oh wow, I might actually have a shot at a trustee scholarship...I have around a 3.5 uw got a 28 on my act and managed a 4.05 this semester...</p>
