International Merit Scholarships

Has anyone received a scholarship? Just wanted to know because it’s already 2nd march in my country and i still haven’t heard anything so I’m worried that I might not get one. Is there any criteria such as ACT scores that you need for this? Thanks in advance guys.

I haven’t either :confused:

It’s currently still March 1st in NY which is my only glimmer of hope, but i don’t know really.

I think I should’ve been eligible as my SAT was 1380 (perhaps around equal to 29 on the ACT) but I’m not sure about my GPA.

I haven’t either and I live in the Buffalo area

I see, I thought I was the only one so thank god haha. I wonder what’s up with their financial aid process… we just got to be patient I guess

The day is almost ending so I guess they might send tomorrow. Good luck to everyone!

Yes and please let me know if there have been any updates! Good luck guys!

Did anyone receive yet??

@meimei29 I didn’t :confused:

I haven’t too. I just saw a post on UB’s facebook page about the storm, maybe that’s causing the delay?

That was my suspicion as well. But I assumed that any effects would be over by March 2nd. (If I’m not mistaken, the alert was on March 1) But then, Buffalo does usually have pretty bad weather.

I just contacted them asking if the lack of notification confirms anything about my scholarship status. Now I’m just waiting for a reply.

The snow stopped here in Buffalo so I hope we’ll get our decision soon

Well it looks like we’re gonna have to wait till next week. Pls share when you get a reply!

You guys most likely received this already, but I just received an email (not in reply to when I contacted them a few days back – this is a blast email to all admitted students) stating that they haven’t been able to update the application status pages due to some technical error. Thus they should have a notification emailed to us in the next 24 hours.

Fingers crossed.

Yep I just read it too. This is going to be another 24 anxious hours haha. Good luck everyone!

My DD just got an email on international admission scholarship of 8,500. I think the lucky ones will get an email soon

I finally got the email detailing my scholarship amount as well.

Got mine too. 2,000 per year. Kind of disappointed but it’s better than nothing

@nine6s how much did u get in scholarship amount ???

@tahirahmed19 $9k per year.

I received 10k per year. I was hoping for more since our EFC isnt much but I guess this is it. Has anyone committed yet?
