Your son’s odds are very good. In 2021, 256 National Hispanic Recognition scholarships were offered, and only 40 were accepted. In 2022, 281 NHR awards were offered and only 62 were accepted. You can find this information in Fordham’s Quarterly Diversity and Inclusion report which they post on their website.

Thank you for this info! I’m hoping he can at least get on a wait list for this award, if that’s a thing. I think it’s wonderful they offer this very generous award and it speaks to their efforts to increase diversity.

I think if you received a large scholarship like Presidential or Dean’s it is in the acceptance letter. The rest of actual need based aid will come out in January. At least that is how it was last year when my son applied.

Will Fordham release EA results as well as ED results today?

I applied EA and was accepted today with no merit aid shown. I’m guessing ED also got their notification today

does any one else’s acceptance letter look a little weird? It doesn’t look like your standard acceptance letter.

Has anyone from Lincoln Center gotten any merit scholarship or just general scholarship information yet?

My son was accepted to the Lincoln Center campus but no mention of scholarships so looks like he did not get the full tuition award for National Hispanic Merit scholar. He had a 1450 SAT & 4.0 unweighted GPA and they seem to indicate they give this award to the top 10% of applicants (believe this includes all college board awards and NMSF) so definitely tough competition. Very excited he got in but Fordham will most likely not be affordable unless we get some kind of miracle with financial aid. Best of luck to everyone!
