<p>Will I be able to stack the Excellence award and the $5000 Maximus? I don’t think I will get the Distinction. The interview didn’t go too well :(</p>
<p>Sorry to hear that, when did you interview? Did they give you a date that you would know if you’re getting it/that you “only” received Excellence? From what I have read they do not stack merit awards-- Morrill replaces others due to value.</p>
<p>If you didn’t get an interview for the distinction, can you still get the excellence?</p>
<p>I interviewed yesterday and they said that they’ll let applicants know by next week.</p>
<p>I received excellence and then an email for a distinction interview so I assume i get excellence if I don’t get distinction…</p>
<p>Does anyone know how many they are interviewing?</p>
<p>I know they said everyone would know one way or another about Morrill’s by mid-April, but I also read that financial aid will posted the first week of April, and I received a postcard yesterday that said to be watching for the financial aid… so, my question is, will we know about Morrill’s when we get our financial aid statements, or will that be something that comes later since it’s a different department? Anyone know?</p>
<p>I just called the office of diversity and inclusion and they said that everyone will receive a notification about the scholarship by the end of march. So basically within about 9 days.</p>
<p>So nerve wracking ahhh</p>
<p>just got home from school. email in inbox. I got one of the Morrill Prominence scholarships. Not sure how many they offer up, but notifications have started.</p>
<p>Never thought, as a white guy from California I would be considered “diversity” but I guess I am.</p>
<p>I received the Excellence scholarship today. Notifications are indeed starting to go out.</p>
<p>I received the Prominence via a email today! We just came back from a dinner celebration!</p>
<p>Are you guys getting these notifications from your OSU email or your regular email?</p>
<p>I have my OSU account set up to send my OSU email to my current high school email address .</p>
<p>Ah okay. I really hope I hear some good news from them next week!</p>
<p>I received the email through my personal email. Didn’t get anything to my OSU email.</p>
<p>So should I be worried yet that I haven’t received anything?</p>
<p>I have no clue. I wonder how many are given out, is it split between female & male, does OOS or IS play any factor. I had received the Buckeye and Maxium equal to 17,000. Last month from OSU but this scholarship cancelled them.</p>
<p>I wanted to add, I hope that money gets reallocated to another student. I am OOS
I also found an article online that stated last year 60 students interviewed for the Distinction Award and 10 were then given out. One of the recipients from last year had credentials that looked like she could be the next Nobel Prize winner. Looks like it would be nearly impossible to get. Good luck to those getting interviewed.</p>
<p>When did you guys send in your application to OSU?</p>
<p>I sent mine in late January, got accepted about 2 weeks later. Paid my acceptance fee about 3 weeks ago and was just notified of the Morrill yesterday.</p>
