<p>hey accepted applicants, please post how many of you applied with aid or without aid. I'm desperate to know.</p>

<p>I applied with aid...definitely. I got my financial aid package about a week ago.</p>

<p>They gave me almost $36k in gift aid, and I'm waiting to hear back on two scholarships from Whitman.</p>

<p>Admitted</a> Students' Day 2008!</p>

<p>I'll be there!</p>

10

<p>Hmmm now I'm a little concerned that I haven't heard from them yet, especially since I'm in state. Oh well. :/</p>

11

<p>hey catsushi, i haven't heard either and i live in washington, so i wouldn't worry too much about it. we should be getting our letters this week, i think.</p>

12

<p>yes i will divulge.
i got 12,000 merit-based and 14,000 aid, but i'll be competing for the sherwood scholarship. who knows!
i do have a lot of private scholarships i'm waiting to hear from and the wa state scholarship will help out a bunch.
good luck to everyone!</p>

13

<p>congrats on the scholarships elle!
that should help alot.
i only got 10,000 for merit and probably wont be getting much for need-based so whitman is looking less and less "realistic from a financial point of view"(mom). :(</p>

14

<p>I didn't apply with aid but they gave me the Walter Brattain Scholarship ($12K) anyways. :)</p>

15

<p>Applied with aid. (I would think...)
Just got accepted today, but no financial aid award is in there. Letter says it will be coming soon. Hopefully it will!</p>

<p>I got in with aid, and I'm a transfer student, a demographic that is notoriously shortchanged and refused the same aid as freshmen at almost every college in the country. Whitman was very generous, considering. 28k in merit and another 10k in unsubsidized loans. Still expensive, but much better than I was expecting from a school as awesome as Whitman!</p>
