Hi!
If you are an URM and have been admitted for fall 2017, did you receive a diversity scholarship? If so, what was the award amount? Congratulations to all who received awards!
TIA!
P.S. Please do not comment if you believe diversity awards are not based on academic achievement or otherwise non-meritorious. Save your thoughts for another time and place.
S is OOS, admitted, no scholarship awarded (yet–?). Not sure if hispanic is considered URM at Clemson.
I know that Clemson does offer diversity scholarships. But in all the research I have done, I have never heard of a person that has actually received one. (As a white female, granted that is not something that I have been spending a lot of time looking into.) They do have a program that I know of giving scholarship money to underprivileged students in the state of South Carolina. But their website is pretty vague on the subject of diversity scholarships.
Best of luck. I am told that more detailed financial aid packages come out in early April. It could be included in that.
Update: My D did not receive a diversity scholarship. She received some other scholarship(s) worth $2,500.
