Merit Scholarships

<p>When/how are we notified if we have recieved one after we are accepted?</p>

<p>no one knows?</p>

<p>it tells u on minerva...</p>

<p>i've heard that it tells you on minerva ONLY if you get the scholarship, otherwise it won't say anything. this is slightly annoying.</p>

<p>I think I read that it takes 1 -2 weeks after your acceptance for you to hear of a major scholarship and "within days" for a basic one.</p>

<p>So I got accepted yesterday morning, and I just checked now and found out I received the basic $3000 renewable scholarship.</p>

<p>Oh, can I still receive a major scholarship? Or is the $3000 all I'm going to get? Just wondering...of course, $3000's quite a dent in my measly $6000 tuition fee already :D</p>

Mind posting some stats for those of us wondering if we will get any scholarship money? I'm thinking that I did not; I got my decision a two days ago and still no award posted.</p>

<p>Mmm.</p>

<p>GPA: 3.9 UW
SAT: 2260
Applied for major scholarship (so I had to send rec letters and stuff)</p>

<p>Where on minerva did it state your $3000? Under the regular application or under financial aid?</p>

<p>Under View Entrance Scholarship Status.</p>

<p>tako, to my understanding if you are offered $3000 basic that is final. i was kicking myself for not applying for the major scholarship when i got the $3000 basic offer, but since my stats are similar to yours i feel less guilty, haha.</p>
