<p>Has anyone heard back from the alumni association about scholarships? I am an incoming freshman and applied for a Mizzou Alumni scholarship back in February but have heard nothing since. I looked at their time line and it shows that students may start getting notified during the month of April, but official letters may not go out until May 1. I was just wondering if anyone has gone through the process and how it worked.</p>
<p>My S has an alumni scholarship. It’s relatively small but very much appreciated. He heard from them during April 2008, but if their timeline says May 1, you might have to wait until then. As a nice touch, the local alumni association invited him to their annual dinner that year. His scholarship is a named scholarship, and so he also got a nice letter from the son of the man it’s named after. He responded then, and he plans to write again after he graduates. Good luck–I’m sure you’ll hear something soon.</p>
<p>Thanks. Do you remember if he had to interview for the scholarship?</p>
<p>No, there was no interview–just the essay.</p>
<p>As I remember my D. got the letter at the very end of April, 2009, so you still have a time.</p>
