Financial Aid/Scholarships?

<p>Does anyone know anything about when we will be notified on FA or Scholarships?? I need that info to decide.</p>

<p>Within about 10 days.</p>

<p>I remember one email that said we should get financial aid notifications by April 15th</p>

<p>i think that a lot of people choose other schools because of this delay. Most schools tell you with acceptance.</p>

<p>I just received a scholarship letter today, if anyone's interested. Got the 26k Regents' Scholarship...really excited about that! Hope some others get good news soon too!</p>

<p>Congrats on getting Regents!</p>

<p>Was your letter only about Regents, or did it include info on other financial aid you received as well?</p>

<p>so it came in the regular mail did it? it wasn't an email?</p>

<p>I'm getting a little worried because I didn't receive anything about a scholarship today, and if I don't get one I might not be able to go to Pepperdine :(. If they come in the mail then I guess I might be alright because I live on the East Coast but still...</p>

<p>I'm in PA, if that helps anyone. And it just said that I got Regents, included some papers about the program itself and then also said that a full finaid writeup would be coming within a week!</p>

<p>Congratulations polkahard! I hope you don't mind my sleuthing, but it looks like you have some great choices. If my D gets a scholarship, she will be choosing between Pepp with money, and Duke with no money. Very different campus cultures. How are you thinking about this?</p>

<p>i keep getting emails about not having tax forms in. will they send my merit aid letter?</p>

<p>Did you send the forms, they need them to prepare the packets...get them in.</p>

<p>Nope. I've ignored all the emails.</p>

<p>Are you no longer interested in Pepperdine? Why would you ignor the request?</p>

<p>S got a letter today by mail saying he was selected for the Regents Scholarship (26k). Very exciting! No other financial aid information with it. We got another email yesterday requesting a new form. Hopefully that is the last one. I called fin aid today. They said EMAILS will go out hopefully Friday, if not, then Monday.
BTW... we live in Oregon in case anyone else is waiting to hear on the Regents.</p>

<p>Congrats! How exciting!</p>

<p>YEah. I am very excited! I also received the Regent Scholarship! Does anyone know what else this entails? Is there some sort of honors program involved? I haven't been able to find much online, and the pamphlet is sort of vague. Anyone know anything about the Regent housing as well?</p>

<p>Check last year's post. I think a current regent scholar wrote about it.</p>

<p>Just spoke with the counselor in Financial Aid-she says that the office is doing everything they can to expedite grants/scholarship award notices so that students can receive no later than the 15th. </p>

<p>I asked how notifications are made and she stated they will come via email as well as a mailed package. Sounds like the Regents awards, perhaps, have already been mailed based JUST upon info. on this thread?? When searching for info. about the Regents, it looked like the awards are for Public Policy students. Did any of you who received the Regents apply to Seaver or School of Public Policy?</p>
