S23 is a direct admit to Kelley and Hutton Honors College, received a Trustees scholarship of $8k per year. He was invited to apply for an HHC scholarship via the SSA but did not have the bandwidth to complete the application by 2/1 (essay fatigue). I think the HHC scholarship was up to $4k per year, if awarded. 4.0 UW, 35 ACT, lots of APs & strong ECs. Is fortunate at this point to have some very good options.

Yes, it sure is!
Yes, this is the same for my daughter.
Hutton Honors College
Direct Admit Kelley
skipped the SSA because she was over the essay writing thing! I also told her that her working at her job was a better guarantee and ROI then doing the SSA, so to use the time she would have needed to write the paper working instead (she luckily makes $40-$45/hr working at a very popular in town restaurant).

I have twin daughters. We are in-state.
Says the Provost Scholarship ranges from $1000-8000.
Twin1, 4.4 GPA weighted, 1350? SAT. Received $5000/yr.
Twin2, 4.3 GPA weighted, 1260? SAT. Received $4000/yr.
Not sure yet, but we have a local scholarship that they should both qualify for that is $4000/year as well. That would cover 2/3rds to 3/4ths of their tuition. I am pretty happy about that.

You may want to reach out to the Scholarship office directly, but I was able to find this on their website. If you scroll down the page, you will see that they mention merit scholarships. It’s not clear to me whether filing the FAFSA (regardless of whether you quality for anything need-based or not) is required to get merit. I would definitely put in a call, becuase your child’s stats are great.

Thanks! Unfortunately, no. After all the college essays (including finding out the school nominated kiddo for the Wells Scholarship and only had a weekend to complete it), kiddo is over essays and research papers. I completely understand the desire to shift focus back to the final few months of senior year, breathe, and just enjoy. Enough time has been spent on the college application process. Also, and we really only found this with IU, kiddo got a bit frustrated being asked to list the same info on every IU application; honors, leadership, community service, extracurriculars, etc. I understand them each asking for an additional essay or two or a couple of short answer questions, but that basic background info should already be available to them. We didn’t understand why those questions were continually being asked. Maybe the Common App isn’t shared between departments? Who knows?
