<p>What amount merit scholarships are there and how many do they give out?</p>
<p>You might want to look back on some of the old threads in this forum.</p>
<p>Bottom line, as you know there are many many many exception applicants.
The numbers of these scholarships are few and you need to offer something unique that builds to the diverse class of tomorrow’s leaders that CMU hopes to build by attracting such students through merit scholarships.
In short-- don’t count on it.</p>
