If anyone is familiar with WashU scholarships, I need some advice!! I am not applying for financial aid, and I don’t really need the money, but I like the scholarship programs and want to be in the programs. I was nominated for the Danforth scholarship, and I also want to apply for a few business-related scholarships. I am applying ED to WashU and the deadline is Nov. 15 and I find out if I got in around December 15. The scholarship deadline is January 15th. My question is should I wait to find out if I got in to apply for the scholarships or turn in the scholarship applications for the Nov. 15 deadline? Basically, will they take into consideration my scholarship application while evaluating me as an ED applicant? Will it help my chances of getting in ED if I fill out the application? Will seeing that I am nominated for the scholarship and then also seeing that I have not yet filled out the application reflect negatively on me? I don’t want to seem lazy, but the scholarship applications are very long, and I don’t want to fill them out until I know if I got in or not, but if they will help my chances then I will fill them out.
