Fall 2009 Decisions!

<p>Their starting to send them out! I found out on the 5th on mysandiego account, and I got my big, white package today :) I got the Trustee's scholarship and an invitation to apply to the honors program. They have already even told me me my financial aid package on my mysandiego account! </p>

<p>It's crazy. I was hardly even thinking about this school since it's so far away, but now it's almost on the top of my list. </p>

<p>Post when you find out, whether it be accepted or denied. Best of luck to all of you :)</p>

<p>I don't see anywhere on my mysandiego account where it tells me the admissions decision =/ All I see is that it says I'll be notified by mail.</p>

<p>Congrats on the full tuition scholarship! My daughter got the trustees and a USD scholarship totalling 20,000.00. (Which is still not enough) How did you get full tuition? I didn't know they gave those!</p>

<p>umm I'm pretty sure their full tuition scholarships are saved only for poor minority students.</p>

<p>I think they gave him a full tuition scholarship because of his amazing grades. Because they are trying to pursuade him to come to their school to help raise thier average stats/prestige. IMO at least</p>

<p>Accepted w/ Trustees... going to check it out next week! haha a full scholly woulda been nice ;)</p>

<p>4.0gpa, 2080 SAT 33 ACT, pres/founder of two clubs, other stuff...</p>

<p>how did you find out on your "mysandiego" portal?</p>

<p>i'm not sure, I got a packet via snail mail.</p>
