<p>I emailed them and they told me merit-based scholarships come out 3-4 weeks after acceptance… Which worries me even more -___-</p>
<p>Maybe you can try calling them tomorrow to see what’s up because we’re hearing a lot of different things.</p>
<p>Not sure what is up with scholarships. I have 4.2 GPA and 32 ACT so I thought I would receive something. Got acceptance over 3 weeks ago. I am still waiting in San Diego, at least it is sunny at 70 here</p>
<p>The admissions counselor I have been emailing said that they send them out in rounds. She said the first round was sent out earlier and that the next one won’t be until sometime in February, so I don’t think it’s based on a certain amount of weeks</p>

General Comments:</p>
<p>I have applied to OSU weeks ago. I have heard back from other schools that applied to at the same time or even after but still nothing from OSU. My application status has said it’s under evaluation for weeks. Am I just getting impatient? Does OSU always take awhile? Just figured I’d hear from them by now, any help will be appreciated…</p>
<p>Same thing for me</p>
<p>OSU kind of depends. Although I have noticed through people in my school that the less strong an application is, the more time one has to wait.</p>
