Burke Scholarship

<p>Has anyone who applied for the Burke Scholarship heard anything about not making it, or getting an interview?</p>

<p>My oldest daughter is a Burke, her interview last year did not occur until March 29th. My second daughter has also applied & has heard absolutely nothing so far. My oldest also has no info on where they are in the process. If you have heard anything since your post, please share. :slight_smile: thanks</p>

<p>Don’t know anything specifically about the Burke, but know that the Pere Marquette letters were received a week ago and the results of the A&S college exam last Thurs. or Fri. (no good news here unfortunately!). Way of saying they are clearing the decks for the other scholarships so the Burke should be forthcoming.</p>

<p>Anyone know how many U.S. History scholarships were awarded? S scored a 5 on the U.S. History AP and a perfect 800 on the SAT II U.S. History so we thought perhaps he had a shot at one. Sorry that it didn’t work out that way as MU probably is out of the running unless f.a. comes through.</p>

<p>Financial Aid for us usually consists of permission to take out $30-40k in loans, so I feel your pain in the wait for scholarship notification. My daughter received an Ignatius scholarship, but it only covers half of the tuition & she would rather go to Madison than take out huge loans.</p>

<p>Good luck on the U.S. History. Nice job on the tests!</p>
