<p>My daughter was just accepted ED. Does anyone know when the
school sends out notifications on Presidential Scholarships?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>First, congratulations! Second, the scholarship announcements typically come with the acceptance or very shortly, thereafter. Third, Elon is historically quite stingy with giving Presidential Scholarships to ED acceptees (believe me, I speak from experience) -- it's just a business decision, really -- ED acceptances are generally binding, so Elon doesn't see the need to entice ED applicants with money. Did your D also apply for an Honors program? That will probably be a better shot at some merit money.</p>
<p>Iderochi,</p>
<p>Her acceptance came in the mail today and she got the $4500 Presidential Scholarship.
She is planning to apply for the Elon College and Leadership Fellows programs. I'm not
sure what her chances will be, I understand that they invite many more people than
they have openings, but it is worth a shot.</p>
<p>That's fantastic! Without even knowing her stats, I can tell she must have been an outstanding applicant. If you look back on the Elon threads for the past few years of ED news, you'll see that merit scholarship awards are few and far between. I'm sure she'll be very competitive for the Fellows.</p>
<p>Did the Presidential Scholarship information come in the mail or is it somewhere online?</p>
<p>i got mine in the e-mail, it doesn't say anything in Elon's On Track website</p>
<p>Thanks...my D was also awarded the Pres Scholarship, yay!</p>
