Hello! Does anyone know the timing of the notice of SSA Scholarship awards? Thus far my S has received a Deans Scholarship in the amount of $11,000, but I’m not certain whether or not this is an SSA? Is the Hutton also something awarded separately, and to whom? Is there a separate application? Any information any of you have would be most appreciated! IU is a top pick, but out of state for us, and even a little bit more scholarship money would put us within range of some of his other offers. Thanks!
The Dean’s Scholarship is not part of the SSA, that is just his initial award. The SSA application was an invite only application due around the beginning of January. Hutton is an automatic consideration for early applications based on ACT and GPA, or you can petition by March 1st. Its my understanding that SSA award recipients will be notified by the end of March at the latest, but some individual schools within IU have already sent out notices for scholarships. My daughter received a Dean’s Scholarship initially and was notified last week of an additional scholarship through SPEA based upon her SSA application. Your son should keep an eye on his IU account.
EThomas68 - thanks!! He did receive the invitation to apply for the SSA scholarships, and completed that application by the deadline. We will continue playing the waiting game on the receipt of information in regard to those - thanks!
My son’s IU account was updated this afternoon with a scholarship from Hutton. So, I would keep checking the account.
Thanks Gills98! My S would be College of Arts & Sciences. Will continue to check and watch email for updates.
So has anyone out there received a non-Hutton SSA merit award? We are also hoping for something from the College of Arts and Sciences.
Has anyone received SSA from College of Arts and Sciences? Considering it’s already April, somebody must have heard something.
We did. We did not receive an email as yet, but we checked online yesterday and it was there in his account.
That’s great! Congratulations! What type of scholarship(s)?
Congrats. Where do you check online?
@hoosierdaddy18 one.iu.edu , go to “Student Center”. It’ll be under financial aid.
@EThom68, it is an “A&S Endowed Scholoarship”. I still don’t know if we are out of the running for the Hutton or not. It is all very confusing!
Any updates from anyone else who has received a SSA award from COAS? It is still showing up under the “To Do” list but on another page I saw that it drops off once the awards have been finalized. Is that correct? IU could not tell me when the awards would be finalized, only that it should be soon for COAS. This is pretty late!
^ I was wondering the same thing.
Talked to the scholarships office today. All COAS SSA’s have been awarded. Unfortunately, my daughter didn’t get one, but congratulations to all who did!
