<p>They officially notify merit aid recipients via priority US mail. You will find out by Wednesday or Thursday at the latest (they released decisions on a Monday last year and I got the package on Wednesday). So if you cannot access your financial aid letter online, just be patient and wait for the package to arrive. Also, financial aid is a separate office at Rice, so they are probably still uploading award letters into ESTHER. I know I didn’t find out last year until the next day when the admission decision was released.</p>
<p>my ester showed that I received a merit scholarship, so i’m not sure why other people are having difficulty…maybe you aren’t looking in the right place? or maybe they haven’t uploaded them all yet??</p>
<p>I did not apply for fin-aid ( high income bracket ) .
But there is a scholarship for $ 34, 000 in award history section.</p>
<p>Esther ==> Financial Aid ==> Award Status.
I got a grant and the Trustee…</p>
