EA Merit Based Scholarships

<p>Did anyone receive a merit based scholarship (e.g. high academic achievement) with their acceptance notification? Or are scholarship decisions made in March along with the RD pool. I'm asking because I want to know if I should be expecting something in the future or if I didn't qualify for anything. </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>hmmm I also would like to know this. I had a couple of schools attach scholarships in the acceptance email, but I feel like a top school with an enormous student body wouldn’t partake in that.</p>

<p>on my acceptance email it said that another letter would come in the mail shortly, and I think the actual letter would probably have scholarship info. At least that’s what happened for a few of my other schools!</p>

<p>Bump, I want to know about this in the coming weeks, as well.</p>

<p>I agree with dancer615. The scholarship information will come at a later date. We have had both scenarios: coming with the acceptance an mailed out a week or two later.</p>

<p>Good to know. Makes me feel more at ease now.</p>

<p>Would you two recipients be willing to share your test scores and gpa. Maybe I wasn’t in range.</p>

<p>They are trolling you and have been doing this on the other thread too. Ignore those two. </p>

<p>When my D was admitted two years ago, we went to accepted students day where they told us scholarship recipients are notified in March.</p>

<p>Does anybody know info about merit scholarships at UM? Everything I’ve found is pretty vague so far…</p>

<p>@wolverine1990 just post a pic and make him/her look stupid then</p>

<p>i asked a mich rep and they said that they announce those in March</p>

<p>Lol. I saw wolverine’s ■■■■■ reject stats and mich give it away with that second one. I’d be a hypocrite if I were to reproach trolls :P. As for everyone else, thanks for the legit info.</p>

<p>Wait. There are scholarships?</p>

<p>Do OOS students get them usually? Also what are the stats of students like? Not asking for an exact requirement value but just the general range of students (eg: 2100+, 3.8 GPA or whatever).</p>

<p>My cousin’s daughter got a $7500/year scholarship (renewable if she maintains a certain GPA). She was from OOS and the scholarship was from the College of Engineering. She graduated from high school a year early with a 4.0 and I don’t know her exact ACT/SAT scores because I didn’t ask. She had taken many APs and took higher level Calc and Physics at a local University because her high school didn’t offer them. She is from a state that isn’t typically represented at U of M and the type of engineering she’s going into is not a common one.</p>

<p>It took me a few reports to kick out these 2 trolling guys. Anyway, there are limited merit aids for oos. But HS GPA 3.8 is not likely be enough as it is below admission average.</p>

<p>Sorry, that was just a random example.</p>

<p>I don’t really have a GPA per se, but I have straight A’s throughout high school and a 41/42 for both junior/senior years in the IB Diploma Program (and a 2220 SAT). Is this somewhere around the median of applicants? Or are they all pretty much for just perfect SAT/ACT students…</p>

<p>You do have a chance. Keep your finger crossed. Umich is hoping to increase the financial aid for oos in the upcoming years. Hopefully you will be benefit from it.</p>

<p>I’m OOS, got one a couple years ago. Basically I got a letter in the mail around 3-4 weeks after my acceptance saying I’d been awarded the scholarship. Didn’t have to do anything to apply, and I don’t think there’s any merit scholarships they award that you apply for.</p>

<p>does anyone know when preferred admissions come out? (for Ross)</p>
