Financial Aid?

<p>Anyone know when financial aid packets come out? I can't seem to find it on the Duke website or the admitted students website...Financial aid determines if I'm going to go visit, and those Blue Devil Days are coming up soon!</p>

<p>Yeah I'm waiting for aid packet...Vanderbilt's came with the mail though.</p>

<p>i just got an e-mail with financial aid info...they were very generous and now i can def. go!!!</p>

<p>Got mine.</p>

<p>GENEROUS!?</p>

<p>Augh.... I was invited for Duke Up Close and oh my... very little scholarship money and financial aid at all...</p>

<p>Does Duke require all your financial information to award you with a scholarship? Have alll the scholarship winners been notified already? Is there any chance of obtaining a scholarship with the admissions decision purely based on merit?</p>

<p>Oh crap...they just e-mailed me saying they're missing a "Student Non-Filer" form...I had no idea I needed that. Am I screwed in terms of getting aid now?</p>

<p>Enteril-I'd call the financial aid office so that you could get a more accurate answer, but the current students' forms aren't even due until May so it's not like Duke's going to run out of money to give to you.</p>

<p>sweetdaises2000-I think there are different scholarships that both take into account and don't take into account financial information. I also believe most if not all scholarship winners/finalists have been notified. There are chances of getting merit scholarships, but there are not that many of them and they are extremely competitive and they were probably all notified by now.</p>

<p>bleh, got mine in email today.</p>

<p>my mom is not very happy with the results...i'll leave it at that! haha.</p>

<p>hopefully i'll get some regional scholarships to help out</p>
