<p>Anyone out there who was accepted into engineering receive a merit scholarship? (I'm not asking about award of excellence which also requires financial need). How much did you get and what are your stats...i was accepted 1/13/05 and should be hearing about any merit scholarships around mid-feb.</p>
<p>Sorry, I didn't apply for engineering....but I had a quesiton about when the Shipman scholarship candidates are/were announced. Did anyone get the nomination?</p>
<p>btw, I got it a week or so ago and I'm making travel reservations now.</p>
<p>korinfox...you're talking about Shipman right? Would you mind sharing your stats? Congrats btw</p>
<p>My son was awarded the Shipman last year. His stats were 1580/800/770/750. He was number 1 in his class and wrote nice essays. His extra/ curriculars were average. After a difficult decision he turned down the offer and chose another school which he loves.
Good luck to you.</p>
<p>well yeah, they're up there 1530/800/800/740 and 3.8 ish gpa and stuff</p>
<p>how about college of engineering merit scholarships?? amount/ stats/ in state vs out of state...</p>
<p>What is the Shipman? </p>
<p>I got the $20K Michigan Scholarship Award, then they sent me more schorlarship offerings as long as I send in the FAFSA before 2/15. If I get one of these scholarships through FAFSA, would the $20K scholarship be cancelled out?</p>
<p>This school is looking better and better every day...</p>
<p>Grasslands,
would you mind sharing what school your son finally decided to attend, and if he had any merit offers there, or did you pay full price? Michigan is a great school,(plus the $$) so it is always interesting to note what kind of choices people made.</p>
<p>college_hopeful, can you pls tell your stats? LSA or Engineering?</p>
<p>college_hopeful was admitted into lsa per some previous posts...but HEY>>> any accepted engineers '09 that received merit scholarships from the college of engineering?? please post here and include stats/in state- out state/ amount of merit scholarship... thanks!</p>
<p>My college senior received a $15K merit scholarship from LSA. Does that rule out further consideration for the Shipman?</p>
<p>I was wondering that too. I got the 60,000 LSA scholarship....but I was really hoping for a Shipman nomination. However, considering korinfox already got the nod...I guess that is that. Congrats though!</p>
<p>To clarify my post above (#12).....</p>
<p>I meant $15K per year. - $60K total.</p>
<p>beethoven & randomdad,</p>
<p>shipman is in addition to lsa merit:</p>
<p>Thanks beethoven!</p>
<p>Hey, korinfox...how did they notify you? ...and did they given you any info about the kind of people getting the nomination/details behind the nomination process? Thanks!</p>
<p>They sent a small envelope... contained stuff about the committee who decides these and some numbers, I think 1000 were considered and they chose 50 semi-finalists of which they expect about 40 to go to Ann Arbor (I know my friend isn't going, he has already accepted harvard's offer).</p>
