<p>Does anyone know when we will be told what merit scholarship we have received? The website says it is automatically given out, but it wasn't in the acceptance letter nor was it on MyAid. Please let me know if any of you have found it. Thanks!</p>

<p>As an Early Action applicant for 2015-16, you have the opportunity to receive your full financial aid award early. If you file the FAFSA by January 16, you will be notified about both the need-based and/or merit-based aid for which you qualify by late January. Students who submit the FAFSA after January 16 will hear about their need-based aid in late March. Early Action students who do not apply for financial aid but qualify for a merit scholarship will be notified in late January. Please complete your FAFSA as soon as possible and no later than February 1, 2015.</p>
Has anyone heard yet about Merit Scholarships?
@2015TxMom Not yet! However there is a message on the financial aid portal saying that nothing will be added to our financial summary (including scholarships) until after Jan. 29.
I’m hoping we’ll find out tomorrow, if not then by the 31st.
My son received the Arrupe Scholarship today. So excited for him!
@3CABoys Congrats, that’s awesome!! Did you get the notification via email or through the mail?
Today I received a letter telling me that I received an Early Action Award. It does not say “merit” or “financial aid” on the paper at all so I am assuming the fin-aid package is still on the way. I’m guessing it is most likely coming tomorrow.
So the merit awards come by mail?
@3CABoys Congrats to your son! Do you mind sharing his major, gpa and test scores?
My son was notified by email this morning that he received a merit award!
Just got notified through the MyAID about my scholarships… have Presidential and Trustee nominees for interview already been nominated, or is that still coming?
My son’s MyAid account was update. He received an Arrupe Scholarship ($11400) and an Early Action Scholarship ($2000).
Is the $2000 early action award one time issue or renewable for year 2,3 and 4?
@josephtu I just called to ask about the Early Action Award. Admissions said it was only one year but transferred me to Financial Aid to be sure. Financial Aid said it was a 4 year award.
Good news. Thanks. I emailed to the finacial aid office and no reply yet.
My son received the Arrupe Scholarship (35,200) today plus early action (2000) and (2000) work scholarship today!!! Equates to full ride merit scholarship per year for tuition. I couldn’t be more proud of him!!! :-j
Congrats @mumz14 to you and your son. That is an awesome scholarship.
Congratulations! Would you mind sharing his GPA and test scores?
@crystal11 If you are asking about my son, Unweighted GPA 3.984 Weighted 4.717 SAT 1930
