<p>Well i received it in the mail today and was pretty surprised considering that I only had a 3.6 weighted GPA and a 1800 SAT.... and I am an OOS... well international student...
I said that I my intended major was materials science... and they offered me a $1000 scholarship...</p>

<p>they said that I have to stay matriculated in MatSE to get the Froberg scholarship, but what does that exactly mean?
I mean like, the first year i will be studying what everyone else does and not doing anything related to MatSE right?
Also, if I say that ill stay "matriculated", what if i decide to switch majors sometime in the future? say like end of freshmen? can I do that?</p>

<p>Also, when do i really get affiliated with a branch, if i choose to... is that beginning of sophomore?</p>

<p>Wow, Im surprised! When did u apply Putt?</p>

3

<p>yea im surprised too… but i applied during priority… like nov 5 or something
then i got accepted in December, but they just mailed it to me today…</p>

<p>It sounds like you got the scholarship from the department, not the university. It sounds like accepting the money obligates you to major in that department.</p>

5

<p>So if I accept, then i cant change majors?
or If i change then they take the money away?</p>

<p>when do I have to do this by?</p>

6

<p>Does anyone know about the qualifications for this Froberg scholarship ?</p>

<p>Call the admissions office and ask them to explain the condition they placed on the $1000.</p>
