<p>I was awarded the Freshman Scholarship of $9,600 with a 30 on the ACT and a 4.6 FSU GPA. Does the scholarship have any implications as to my potential invitation into honors? Do only honors students get it? Do student outside of the honors program get it? Do not all honors student get it? Are they completely unrelated?</p>
<p>Thanks and congrats to all those that got accepted :)</p>
<p>Your stats are almost identical to my daughters. She was offered the same scholarship also. I met with the Honors staff last month. Honors students will be solicited to call accepted students this week. They mail out the letters tomorrow. She indicated that they will also send out an e-mail but FSU prohibits them from releasing any info until regular admissions are released.</p>
<p>I do not believe the scholarship is related but it would seem that the students stats for scholarships and honors are in the same boat.</p>
<p>The Honors staff indicated that if not offered all you do is appeal and with these stats it would be a sure bet. Congrats!</p>
<p>Usually that scholarship money is first-come, first-serve. It is there until it is gone, which does not take very long. I’d not wait too long to accept it.</p>
<p>Question-
Were is the scholarship information listed ?</p>
<p>p2n- I don’t think that is true for the Freshman University Scholarship. Last year it remained listed and available on my son’s bb account until the May 1st deadline.</p>
<p>If we get into the Honors program does the housing priority number matter at all?</p>
<p>Yes, you still need a relatively low priority number to live in Landis or Gilchrist, since there are more honors students than beds in those halls. I know people that got honors housing with numbers in the low thousands, so who knows. Considering that they give out more than 7000 numbers, and not every honors student wants to live in those halls, you should be fine if you sign up early.</p>
<p>FSUDad, when funds are competitive and limited I’d suggest not testing the limits of the system. Your mileage may vary. :)</p>
<p>With our D1 we accepted the monies as soon as she decided FSU was for her, which did not take very long.</p>
<p>How do you find out if you got a scholarship?</p>
<p>Go to Blackboard and see your financial data.</p>
<p>I don’t understand about “accepting” the scholarships. How does this work?</p>
<p>The freshman University Scholarship is automatically accepted for you when you accept the admission offer.</p>
<p>Got my honors invite last night! Congrats to everyone else and thanks for the responses :)</p>
