<p>Hi! I didn't get any of those scholarship things (I probably should have, but I was too lazy), so I begged the financial aid office for money (I'm a rising freshman). They were really nice and gave me $10000.
Does anyone know if they continue this each year w/o being asked, or do I have to go on my knees and beg again?
Thanks!</p>
<p>Re-apply each year, though the process is a little different. And I assume they require a new FAFSA. Lastly, I doubt they gave you anything because you begged. You got it because you qualified. And if you continue to qualify, you will continue to receive aid.</p>
<p>well i dont know about being "qualified."
they didnt give me anything until i started bugging them.</p>
<p>thanks for the input!</p>
<p>Is it necessary to apply early decision in order to be eligible for merit money at Washington University?</p>
<p>No - you have an equal chance both ED and RD. Look at the site and also consider a nomination for the Danforth as a freshman. Scholarship</a> Programs At-A-Glance</p>
