merit scholarship question!!!

<p>if i got my acceptance letter to the university of michigan and was not informed of a merit scholarship , does this mean i am not receiving one? i kinda assumed i would get some money since i am ranked first in my class of 680.</p>

<p>Check on the UofM thread, but I think most of the available merit scholarships are announced in a couple months. UofM also has fairly comphrehensive finaid pages that you could re-read or read if you haven’t. I do not believe there are automatic discounts for grades/scores. You should also check with your guidance office…if you are in-state they may be aware of how UofM operates as well as local scholarships or scholarships for being ranked first in the class.</p>
