I think so, the office has closed
I heard they were coming out after office hours
The scholarship folks were still working when I left which was after 5. If I hear definitively, Iâll let you know.
They havenât come out yet it seemsâŠUsually they come out by first week of march, but this time since the admission notices went out only on Feb 28th, it may be another 1-2 weeks before we see the scholarships
Can anyone confirm if they have been sent?
FWIW â D was accepted to the University of Florida last year (out-of-state student). She received her acceptance on Friday, February 8, 2019 and her merit scholarship offer on Wednesday, February 20, 2019. A total of 12 calendar days. So if UF sent their acceptance letters out on February 28, 2020, then based on last yearâs schedule, the scholarship notifications may come on or around Wednesday, March 11, 2020.
Keep the faith! Wishing the best for everyone.
BTW â D absolutely LOVES UF and wouldnât want to be anywhere else.
They have not gone out yet - still testing to make sure everything looks right before they are officially released.
@melissa96 do you think they will release the merit scholarships tomorrow and when will we find out about the Benacquisro?
@Melissa96
Melissa rough and tumble as I suspect you cannot say. Is a 33 and 4.26 for an OOS prospective student from Texas competitive? Thanks!
I DMâed the UF admissions twitter account and they responded and said that they havenât been released yet and will release early this week sometime.
@Melissa96 Hi! Any updates on when scholarships will be released?
@thatgirlwiththebow - Just asked and was told they would be released in the next day or two.
@Melissa96 How will we see the merit scholarships. On the portal or will an email be sent. Also, will we be informed if we did not receive any merit?
You will see it on the application status page if there is an award. We donât send an email or add - Sorry you werenât offered a merit scholarship on the portal.
So they Merit scholarship are out?
Not yet, Iâm thinking the end of the day tomorrow.
@Melissa96 hello, DS21 scored 226 in California on the PSAT and is highly likely to be an NMF. 1560 SAT, 4.0 UW GPA, captain of the football team, yay my kid!!! He is soooooo excited about UF I canât even describe it (as much as I try to sell UM, lol) and he is really looking forward to our visit on April 8th. SoooooooâŠif/when UF cancels classes like so many other colleges across the country, will we be receiving an email telling us our scheduled campus tour has been canceled and that we should please stay away from campus (even as a self-guided tour)? Any information you could provide would be greatly appreciatedâŠand Iâd love not to be the bad guy here (he told me even if you guys cancel the tour, he wants to make the trip any way just to walk the campus. He is already bleeding blue and orange, goodness gracious.)
They are out
Merit scholarships were sent out. You can see it in your portal. Also, does anyone know if the Presidential Scholarship (Platinum), Honors Scholarship and Benaquisto/Bright Futures stack? I received all of them (and am happy about that!) but I donât know what that really means. It seems like I was already getting free tuition.
Donât see any update in the portal for my son. Do they release the in-state and out-of-state scholarships at the same time? Did anyone receive a scholarship for OOS yet?
