received a presidential scholarship award (15k/year) but don’t know additional fa info. @Jmbakh where do you see a link to make an account?
@bookaddiiict - did you get this in the mail or in the community account thing? I’m not sure if my son created an account yet or not.
Got waitlisted 
ACT: 30 GPA: 4.3W 4.0UW Should have done early decision 2
@bookaddiict @cttwenty15 @Jmbakh I’m confused - I don’t see anywhere to set up this account on my status page…
Snail mail - Justice Brandeis Scholar - $17,500 per year!
Snail mail (New England) - Trustees Scholar - $12,500 per year.
Congrats on the scholarships! Did you guys get any indication in your acceptance letters that you would get merit aid (I think someone said they did in this thread)? I live outside of New England and there was no mention of merit aid in my letter, so I’m wondering whether I should get my hopes up for something in the mail tomorrow.
There was no mention of merit aid in the acceptance letter. They only mentioned that if we applied for financial aid notification would arrive in the next few days. The scholarship notification arrived in a regular sized envelope which read “Scholarship Enclosed” in the bottom right hand corner and was addressed to DS.
When I click on the link to “view update” it takes me to the instructions.
I got the presidential scholarship 15k/year and had no indication in acceptance letter @alpaca97
Thanks @Epeemom and @arfieldsy
Congratulations to all of you scholarship recipients!!!
There isn’t anything showing for me online but hoping for some good news via USMail in the next couple of days.
I’m finally able to see my financial aid on the sage account (thanks @Jmbakh ). I got the Justice Brandeis Scholarship, but no actual financial aid. I’m grateful for the merit scholarship, but the cost is still double what my family can afford (and appealing won’t double my FA award…) So Brandeis is off the table now 
I still cannot see my financial aid on the sage account… Hm.
@alpaca97 , we are in the same boat. Son received a scholarship but no FA. The tuition is about double our budget so I’m not sure there is anything we can do. Have to believe that everything will work out in the end and everyone will find a great school!
Yay, via USPS received word that I am a Justice Brandeis Scholar, $70K to be distributed over the course of eight semesters/equivalent of $17,500 annually.
Just got the merit aid letter as well! Presidential Scholar w/ $15,000 a year!
Is the presidential scholarship merit-based?
@lavalamp97 yup
@aydee115 I got that too! I’m very excited.
