<p>hi i am hoping for a merit scholarship from denison as an incoming freshman next year (I'm pretty sure I'll get in)</p>
<p>with a 34 ACT, and 35 superscored, does anyone know what I can except as a merit award who has gone through it or knows Denison well? I have a good GPA, extracurriculars, sport, etc. as well if that is taken into account</p>
<p>You would be in the running for one of the $45K scholarships. <a href=“http://denison.edu/campus/admissions/financial-aid/types-of-aid”>http://denison.edu/campus/admissions/financial-aid/types-of-aid</a> That essentially covers tuition. <a href=“http://denison.edu/campus/admissions/financial-aid/tuition--fees”>http://denison.edu/campus/admissions/financial-aid/tuition--fees</a> Make sure you fill out the application for the scholarships before 15 Jan.</p>
<p>I thought it was automatic consideration when you apply- is there a separate application? </p>
<p>Not automatic. You have to fill out the application. From the link I provided:
</p>
<p>Separate application must be new this year?</p>
<p>Erin’s Dad, the website simply indicates you must complete your application and all materials by Jan 15. There is no indication of any separate application for that scholarship.</p>
<p>OP, I suggest contacting your admissions counsellor to double check. Too important to make a mistake!</p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
<p>^ You may be right. I reread it and it seems you don’t need a separate FA app. But do check. My D had to apply separately for the Pascal award (which unfortunately is no longer offered).</p>
