<p>has anyone received any scholarships from their departments? Based of the fact that many of the forums users, including myself, have already received school-wide scholarships I'd guess they have finished handing out university scholarships so it would make sense for people to start receiving departmental scholarship notices. Please post if you know anything. Thanks and good luck to everyone.</p>
<p>$6000 from the School of Music. Came about 2 weeks before the presidential sholarship.</p>
<p>For everyones info, on the online chat last night they said engineering departmental scholarships have not been handed out yet</p>
<p>wt else was in the chat? i had a job interview during it last night so i couldnt see it.</p>
<p>Curious is anyone has received one. Also does anyone know if you received a Presidential Scholarship if you can also receive a Departmental scholarship?</p>
<p>$1000 from engineering (like that's gonna make a difference). if you need money, apply to private ones (im currently doing 1 everyday ps. so many essays so little time :( )</p>
<p>Received $8000 merit scholarship ($2K/yr x 4 yrs) from School of Engineering - letter arrived today.</p>
<p>Additional scholarships can be applied for in Sophomore, Jr, and Sr years. They are well documented on the UMD engineering web site and it said dept scholarship decisions come out in April.</p>
<p>$2000 for engineering...</p>
<p>I received 1,000 for freshmen yr from engineering on top of my presidential scholarship. Do the specific engineering majors also give out scholarships?</p>
<p>8K Pres scholarship + 2K Engineering. I like your thinking MeyerLO5 - a scholarship from major if there is such a thing would be the "icing on the cake"</p>
<p>There are lots of private scholarships that target specific majors within the School of Engineering (like Civil, Computer, or Electrical) - most are for Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors...</p>
