I would not worry too much at all. The book “Where you go is not who’ll youll be” has helped me thru my rejection letters, I believe in all of us lol
@keysfan where did you see presidential scholarship, with the rest of the financial aid? All our shows is her grant and loan.
My s got a fat envelope today. Accepted to business school.
Gpa 3.3 a few AP classes, 31 ACT
Visited over summer
Got 5500$ year scholarship .
From New Jersey
@collegemom2000, it was in the financial aid letter. I’m not sure what the significance is, because as I understand it if she had been accepted to the honors program there would’ve been an additional $10,000 in honors merit aid.
Hello! I have a question. If I can access my financial aid award letter on MyAU, should I assume I have been granted admission into AU? I did not want to get too excited until I was able to confirm…
@doctornc look under Home and Enrollment Agreement, you should see a statement that says “congratulations – you have been accepted”
@keysfan omg thank you so much! I just checked! I’m in!!! Congratulations to everyone and best of luck!!!
@keysfan ours just says $20,000 AU grant then about $5,500 in loans. Nothing about scholarship.
I think DS is going to be a victim of the high stats = waitlist - ugh! AU wasn’t going to be an option without major merit money and he has other options but it will still sting.
Congrats to all who got in! I’m just curious, did AU send on emails notifying those who got accepted of their acceptance or not?
out emails***
@collegemom2000, maybe the grant is need-based aid and the scholarship is merit? Not sure.
A scholarship is usually merit. But D has been getting both at most schools so didn’t know if there was a separate letter. $20,000 def. isn’t enough for us to send her.
If I can’t make an AU account, does that mean I’m denied?
@student12322 not being able to log on isn’t an instant indication of rejection–my friend couldn’t login and still can’t although she got her acceptance packet this afternoon. I also looked on last year’s thread and there were a ton of students who couldn’t log on initially but still got an acceptance in the mail. I believe there was a previous poster in this very thread who was also in that situation!
Same here. My S cannot create a MyAU account
@BoroDad Did your S get accepted?
Was finally able to login to the portal (didn’t realize there was a specific username, I just thought it was the AUID). Looks like I got in!! with a $15,000 dean’s scholarship!! Is that merit aid or financial? Don’t know if I got into any programs, but after a denial from BC earlier today, this was definitely needed! For those wondering, my stats: 32 ACT 3.89 GPA UW, not a bunch of ECs but very dedicated to the ones I have, and a good essay
@student12322 No news yet
How did you find your username to login?
