Accepted Students Class of 2019 Discussion

Colleges and Universities A-Z Clemson University
1

<p>So excited for my daughter who got her big Tigertown Bound envelope today and was admitted to the Clemson school of nursing! She also received a $15,000/year merit-based scholarship! </p>

2

<p>when did she apply?</p>

3

<p>I think she applied in September. They must be doing rolling acceptances. Good luck! </p>

<p>My OOS daughter applied in September and her letter came today. She received $7500 merit scholarship - I was really hoping for more based on her numbers. Does anyone know what is needed to receive more than the minimum? My daughter has an ACT of 32 and a weighted GPA of 4.95. thanks!</p>

5

<p>It really depends on what are the stats of other students who applied - I suspect they probably look at that to make their decisions about who gets what.</p>

<p>@janey13, If you go to the net cost calculator on the Clemson website they ask if you want to calculate merit scholarships.</p>

<p><a href=“http://workgroups.clemson.edu/A_A_5690_OIR/cunpc/”>http://workgroups.clemson.edu/A_A_5690_OIR/cunpc/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>With a 32 ACT she would need to be top 10% of her graduating class for the top amount.</p>

<p>You can recalculate the estimated scholarship with different scores and ranks to see where she falls. </p>

<p>If you fill out a FAFSA in January and so any need at all they bump the merit scholarship up $2500.</p>

<p>@pierre0913, we were told the scholarships are not competitive and are based only on the applicants stats (test scores and class rank).</p>

8

<p>@daveverdo‌ - I wasn’t talking about who would get them but rather about what amount one would get. I’d imagine it would be sort of competitive in that case.</p>

9

<p>@pierre0913, It is spelled out in the net cost calculator. It calculates what merit scholarships are awarded based on class rank and test scores. top 10% 32 ACT or 1400SAT = $15000 OOS scholarship.</p>

10

<p>I’ve already been accepted to the college, so I wonder when I will hear back from Honors? I hope it’s soon because I want to know!!! That will make a big difference on whether or not I will go to Clemson!</p>

11

<p>Got in with 7500 a year, no class rank 3.6UW gpa 1380 SAT</p>

12

<p>@imagineer10‌ - you’ll probably hear back around February 15th for honors</p>

13

<p>thanks for info - our school does not rank so maybe that is why $7500.</p>

14

<p>if they don’t rank, they’ll estimate a class rank for her based on GPA and go from there.</p>

15

<p>When do we find out decisions for the Honors College?</p>

16

<p>around February 15th</p>

17

<p>Can those who didn’t get their “packages” that no others are being sent? </p>

18

<p>Congrats guys! I got $10,000 with 1360 SAT and 4.3 W GPA. Applied early September and found out early November.</p>
