<p>[ b]General Comments, scholarship chances, status info, going to Chapman…?:really trying to get off the list and on to admissions!</p>

<p>Those of you who got a scholarship, how did you find out about it?
I mean through email, or regular mail? And did you receive it together with the acceptance letter?</p>

<p>Letter of acceptance included the scholarship amount</p>

<p>Can you see your scholarship anywhere in the webadvisor, too?</p>

<p>You receive it through the mail with the acceptance letter;
As for the webadvisor, I assume it doesn’t because I couldn’t find it anywhere</p>

<p>*admission approved on webadvisor
probably going to change my major though</p>

<p>speak: To what?</p>

<p>not really sure yet…
some sort of science…and possibly double major in something w/in dodge</p>

<p>Cool! I will do Production and probably minor in Computer Science. My high school classes have been solid math and science throughout school. So, if Production does not work out, there is always pre-med :)</p>

<p>Anyone know when packets usually come in the mail? My admission was approved as of 3/13…and does the scholarship info come in with the packet as well?</p>

<p>For EA my packet came less than a week later!</p>

<p>ACCEPTED!!! I had been deferred and I just checked my status and it said admission approved!!!
