financial aid/scholarships for admitted student?

<p>on my gibson account, it says i have been admitted. my parents only sent in the financial aid stuff on the 14th, so idk about need-based aid, but would my account tell me if i am going to receive a merit-based scholarship? or would this news come later/with my official acceptance in the mail? will my official letter not come until april? i only just applied on january 1st.</p>

<p>You should get your letter in the next two weeks and it will have any merit aid in the letter other than the DHS or CSS if you have applied for those.</p>

<p>thanks for the info! ill look for that letter</p>

<p>Just to add a bit to that, the FA based on need usually comes towards the end of March.</p>

<p>thanks fallenchemist for the addendum. thank you both again!</p>
