Yes, our D also got accepted with a PS referring to her passion at the end of the acceptance letter. My D was really touched that they encouraged her to continue it in CWRU.

Agreed. So many universities expect students to look through their website/materials and write a “Why Here” essay - grabbing a snippet from the student’s record when indicating “Why You” would seem fair. D21 certainly appreciated it.

I got in through EA, but I applied for scholarships. Does anyone know when they come out? I think it said by April 1 on the website, but that doesn’t really help lol

Last year about 20% (1,076) of people who accepted a place on the waiting list (4,921) were eventually admitted.

@highschoolinnj Yes, they offer the same scholarships no matter how you get in (ED, EA, RD, Waitlist)
Last year about 20% (1,076) of people who accepted a place on the waiting list (4,921) were eventually admitted.
And the year before that it was 0%.
Take a look at CWRU Waitlist FAQs to see how it has varied over the past few years.
I got in as an international student with 5k need based aid. I feel like I should ask for more. But I haven’t received any merit scholarships on my application; can anyone tell me where can I see it. I need to know if I can appeal for any kind of merit award.
@SmartyMC I have not seen successful appeals of merit aid.
The only way you might get more need based aid is if something out of the ordinary happened e.g., a parent lost a job or something.
So the chances of me getting more aid is next slim ig
