My daughter just got an email saying she’ got the presidential scholarship. Has anyone heard about scholars weekend?
I’ll ask my daughter when she gets home. What time did she receive the email?
She received the email at 4:45 but it’s not posted on her lmu account or anywhere. Just an email.
Do you or anyone else happen to know if we can check about whether or not we got a merit scholarship on the portal or somewhere else? Or is it only emailed to us?
as far as I can tell, it’s only emailed. I wasn’t expecting anything this soon!
No luck for my daughter. I just snuck into her email. lol She will be disappointed.
Congratulations to your daughter! That is awesome for her (and you)! Would you mind sharing her stats?
Thank you! 35 ACT, 4.6 W 3.9 UW. I’m sure they’re still in the process of sending them out.
My daughter got an email offering her the Presidential Scholarship. Does anyone know if that means she is out of the running for the Trustee’s Scholarship?
@Supermomof2EG can I ask what time your daughter received her email?
If you don’t mind me asking, when did your daughter submit her application ?
Around 4pm
My daughter applied EA in November.
For anyone stressed about not getting scholarship emails, I called them yesterday to ask. The said the scholarships wouldn’t come out until early February, so no need to fear to everyone who hasn’t gotten one.
are you considered for a scholarship if you applied RD?
@kcw18 Yes - but if you applied RD, you will be notified in early April
even for the full tuition scholarships?
Yes. Here is the information on scholarship timing from LMU: http://financialaid.lmu.edu/prospectivestudents/applyingforaid/enteringfall2018/#d.en.218357
@ShawnWax but online it says trustee nominations would go out by the beginning of February. All trustee candidates are required to go through an interview–so isn’t it too early for RD applicants to be considered for this?
Ahh the Trustee nominations. There are a total of 10 Trustee Scholarships every year and my understanding is if someone applied RD with a profile that is “Trustee” worthy, they will flag and invite in early February. Those quantities are quite small…
My daughter just received her financial aid award in the mail. Still wondering if she has a chance at the Trustee Scholarships.
