<p>Hi, I've been accepted into UT and got a pretty decent financial aid package. In order to accept the package you have to do some stuff including any external scholarships that you'll be receiving. I am currently applying for a couple scholarships and was wondering if I have to notify the financial aid office that I am applying, or if I notify them after I have been awarded the scholarships (if I get them).</p>
<p>Since I won't find out the results of these scholarships for a while, I doubt I'll have to put them down now to accept my package. It's still something that troubles me though. I would think this is a question that has been asked before so if it's been answered somewhere else such as on the forums or the UT site could somebody redirect me? Doing a search for "scholarships" as one would expect brought up many unhelpful threads.</p>
<p>One more thing, if I do receive a scholarship later on, what part of my fin. aid package will be reduced if it will be (work study/loan/grant/scholarship)?</p>
<p>Also I've read FINANCIAL</a> AID: How Non UT Scholarships are Processed which helps a little. Thanks everyone.</p>
