<p>can you all help me check out this scholarship package from Lake Forest? i'm not very sure about what it means.
"Congratulations! You have been admitted to Lake Forest College for the
fall 2006 semester. We are impressed with your academic performance and
are pleased to invite you to participate in our Trustee Scholarship
Program. This is a highly competitive program with the opportunity to
receive a full-tuition scholarship. The tution for 2005-2006 has not
been determined yet, but to give you an idea of the scholarship amount,
the tuition for 2004-2005 is $24,096. If you are not awarded a
full-tuition scholarship (they are very limited), you will be awarded a
$19,500 Trustee Scholarship. The maximum amount offered to students who
are not qualified for the Trustee Scholarship is $18,000 US (annual)."
OK, this is what they emailed me. so does it mean that I've received, for sure, a $19,500 Trustee Scholarship and am only competing for the full-tuition scholarship? or is everything uncertain yet? I think it's the former but just want to confirm, hehe.
oh yeah good luck to everyone who haven't gotten their financial aid!</p>
<p>you were admitted for fall 2006? is that supposed to be "fall 2005" or are u doing a gap year?</p>
<p>Congrats! Sounds like you've gotten at least $19,500. Check, though, with the college to make sure that my read is right. I'm sure that they're used to students calling to ask questions about the scholarship, so don't be shy about doing so.</p>
<p>thanks for the replies. they told me today that i can get at least $18,000. and the fall 2006 is an typo-error, it's supposed to be fall 2005.</p>
