Just want to confirm. I guess you are sure getting $30k/yr.
Are you admitted with Honor status?
They told me because my daughter is not Honor, so her NM scholarship will be only $25k/yr.
Five years ago NMF was free tuition, automatic placement in honors, and required community service hours. It has changed quite a bit from then. I think most of my daughter’s NMF friends in NEU class of 2017, wouldn’t have attended NEU with the new rules. These are very smart kids from lower middle class families who recognized the great bargain they got with this NMF free tuition. I wonder how much this will affect NEU’s yield rate on NMF kids.
Remember that if Northeastern’s calculation of your need is greater than $25/$30,000 you may still receive need based grants.
Right but northeastern rep has really increased in the past years. They don’t need that high of a reward to attract nmf today. I’m receiving the standard federal loan of 5.5k but I probably won’t use it. Honestly, this is driving me crazy I’m choosing between Boston college and nu and this nmf scholarship will be the decision maker for me and they still don’t have the final grant package ready for me yet!
