Belk Scholarship

<p>i'm from just south of Davidson (huntersville area)</p>

<p>Still no word from Davidson?</p>

<p>I got a letter last week...no semifinalist status for me.</p>

<p>Anyone received any info on merit scholarships recently?</p>

<p>If you go <a href="http://www2.davidson.edu/admission/admis_finaid.asp%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www2.davidson.edu/admission/admis_finaid.asp&lt;/a> there is a link to a complete list of Davidson scholarships.</p>

<p>Quite a few of them are location specific (example-one might be a merit scholarship with preference to people from Texas or something).</p>

<p>Anyways...I've got my eye on some of them that apply to me (from SC), so I was wondering if anyone knows if they have given out such scholarships (not just ones to SC people but to anyone from a certain area)?</p>

<p>better check to make sure the Belk Scholarships will still be available next year! In case you haven't heard yet, Belk just resigned as a Trustee. More here...</p>

<p>Ditto what Arcadia said. There's another thread about this on the Parents Forum:</p>

<p>The April 12 Charlotte Observer article quotes him as specifically saying that he will continue to support the scholarhip program that bears his name.</p>
