Hey Everyone! I was just filling out the awards section. Would it be alright to mention a scholarship that another university offered me (University of Maryland)? It’s definitely an award, but would it be in good taste?
Noooooooooooooooo, don’t include university (scholarship type) awards. That would be a huge mistake. I’m pretty sure they are referring to any awards received during your HS career for things like: competitions, academic achievement, etc. Scholarship offers are not the sort of award you want to include anywhere on these types of applications.
Yea I figured, since they may perceive it as a “threat” or whatever. Thanks!
