Has anyone been offered a Presidential scholarship or Richmond Scholar letter from University of Richmond yet?
Presidential and Richmond Scholars offers typically are not made until March, although finalists for Richmond Scholars are typically notified that they are being considered in February.
Per the admissions blog, that might be different this year.
@katespeare Thanks for letting me know, I hadn’t seen the admissions blog post about Presidential Scholars. I do know that the Richmond Scholars timeline has shifted slightly this year, so finalist notifications may occur earlier than February, but I don’t believe batches are being done anymore; my understanding is that all finalists will be notified at once this year. That blog post does have a small error in it, though. Richmond Scholar recipients will most likely be announced early-mid March, as they are usually announced fairly close to the recipient visit, which is at the end of March this year, not in early April as stated on the blog (current Scholars have been told the actual dates in order to plan for hosting, but I don’t think we’re allowed to share them yet).
@chuckyma the Richmond scholars process has changed this year and I don’t believe they are doing semifinals anymore, since there are no longer designations. They are only notifying finalists by February.
