There was no Early Decision/Action thread started yet. I applied EA and had everything in by 9/21. I just received an acceptance this morning : ) Included was a $10,000 merit award. From looking at their website, $12,000 was the most awarded for this past year in the general merit award category. They do have named scholarships and other merit that gets sent out in early March. The $10,000 lowers the cost to around $45,000 which puts Belmont more expensive then two other schools I’ve been accepted to so far.
