Wow every OOS student gets that, scholarship, very generous. Not a minority, but will look.
My understanding is that not every oos student gets a merit scholarship. Congratulations!
At this point, I’m just hoping for an “in-person,” socially disantanced graduation. It would really suck for them to lose every memorable event of senior year.
i don’t know sorry
I saw the most real, but heartbreaking quote from a teen:
"It’s really hard to look forward to anything when everything you look forward to keeps getting canceled.”
I think this is why the college admittance stress might be amplified this year. It is something to look forward to.
to all the seniors and parents of seniors. Such a tough year.

i love this thank you!
I agree, it has been really hard on them. I feel like the class of 2020 got nothing but all of the empathy. The class of 2021 is the forgotten class that no one cares about except their parents.

By “automatic” I mean that the students who qualify will automatically be granted the award. It’s not given to every OOS student.

On the website for OOS Dean’s Scholarship it states “IU Academic Scholarships are awarded based on high performance in academic coursework, and test scores are not considered in the initial awarding of these merit scholarships” - I am wondering if there could be more merit offered at a later date based on this saying “initial awarding”
Yes - final awards will be assessed in March. I asked them about this in an email.

Finally got the Kelley email, so exactly 2 weeks from the general acceptance email. I need to learn to be more patient. LOL!

Congrats!!!
ok so I’m confused. i’ve been accepted on my portal, but will my scholarship info come in the acceptance email or the “#IUSAIDYES” mail packet?**
Son got informed in his mailed packet, not by email or portal. He did get notice to apply for supplemental scholarships by email.

My son got his packet first in the mail. Then about a week later he got an email about it as well. So the answer is both, but you’ll hear in your #IUSAIDYES packet first, or at least we did.

@ryders3 Good to know - thank you!
how long did it take after their portal acceptance for people to receive their email and mail packet?
Scholarship info comes in the packet if you qualify. Since initial awards are based on GPA only, I’m not sure if you’d qualify unfortunately.
