Hi! I just received a letter about merit scholarships from Depauw University and I was wondering if anyone else did and for how much. DePauw is pretty expensive so I don’t know if my scholarship will allow me to go so I was wondering if anyone else was having the same dilemma?
$18,000. I am hoping to get additional scholarship $ but have to wait and see. How much they offer you?
$23,000 total. I am also hoping for additional money
Well, I got $20000 on merit based aid and $15000 on need based aid, making it $35000 per year.
Just found out I qualified as a Rector scholarship finalist! Also, how do we find out about need-based aid?
Since I am an international student, it is more of an international grant rather than need based aid. How much is Rector Scholarship worth?
Full-tuition
Good luck! Are international students eligible for this scholarship? What are your stats?
I am not entirely sure, sorry! Stats: 35 ACT, 4.78 W GPA, IB Diploma Candidate, over 500 community service hours, 1st place at both national and international competitions. Male from Florida
You are a very strong candidate. Good Luck
I got $20,000 per year in merit based aid and another $28,000 in need based aid.
Stats:
GPA - 4.0 out of 4.0 unweighted
SAT - 1760
ACT - 25
Rank - 1 out of 235
of AP: 13
Damn! Are you going to attend DePauw?
I genuinely was until I was accepted into my early decision school shortly after getting my scholarship and financial aid letters.
Congratulations!
Heard back today! I got a 40,000$ merit scholarship.
STATS:
3.5 unweighted GPA for senior year (My school works on a points system so it was a 90 average)
1780 SAT- breakdown was a 640 CR, 540 M and 600 W. Math was definitely an outlier.
School does not rank/rigorous private boarding school
Might play on their lacrosse team as well.
I think what made me stand out to them were my extracurriculars and essay. My stats are relatively average but I’m thrilled they looked past my stats!
Does anyone know if Depauw offers admission into a Fellows Program with acceptance letters or does that come separately later on?
I have also taken 4 APs: Spanish, Human Geography, Environmental Science and United States History
Did you hear back from the Rector Scholarship?
@senior123b5r5v Are you an international student?
@Komz1304 You are replying to a thread from 2015…
@TrishaAgarwal Yup, I’m aware of that.
