Ole Miss Scholarships

Does anyone know what sort of order people are notifed?

Alphabetical or whatever? We have yet to be notified of scholarship offers. We were accepted a couple of months ago.

I just checked my Award section on the my ole miss website and saw that i got the Academic Excellence, Academic Excellence Tech, and the Holmes scholarship for a total of around 28K a year! Very exciting!

S just got the Barksdale Honors notification email.

Hey guys did you any kind of admitted letter in email. I was accepted months ago and recently got that email. I dont know when I will be awarded scholarships.

Check your awards section on line. They should be there if you got the email Honors email.

@heydudekid If you’ve been fully admitted, you should be receiving a letter of financial aid if you meet the requirements for the noncompetitive scholarships. Competitive scholarships will be awarded in the spring.

I am an international applicant. Still, I haven’t received any kind of information on my account or email.

Ahhhh… international programs handles their process differently from the regular undergraduate admissions so that could be the issue.

Does Ole Miss take weighted or unweighted GPAs into consideration for scholarships?

I think they’re like alabama and will take which ever is highest. However I think they do tabulate the gpa using only core curriculum.

Thanks!

I recently got an email reply to my query on when aid offers will come out.

“Official award letters do not go out until April 1st for incoming freshman scholarships. Please let us know if you have any additional questions.”

I think that’s way too long to wait!

Any updates from anyone on special scholarship money? Or will we be waiting until April 1?

I thought the awards would come out starting early march.

I hope so!

@STEM2017 My son was admitted to the honors college yesterday; he applied in early December. Right now it’s likely he’s going elsewhere, but the scholarships might make a difference. They asked him to let them know as possible so if he goes elsewhere they can give his honors college spot to another person. I think a big factor for everyone is the scholarships, so I hope we hear soon.

@STEM2017 Today may be the day. I just checked the scholarship notification page, and 2017-18 is offline for “about an hour.” May mean nothing, but it may mean they are loading information.

@EarlVanDorn I hope you are correct, but that notification is up pretty often.

Not that I check obsessively or anything like that. :smiley:

@EarlVanDorn System is back up, with no change for my S.
