Questions about Selective Scholarship Application (SSA)

Do you know if Hutton goes out on a rolling basis? Congrats on the award btw

Those are two very nice scholarships to get. Being instate I know how expensive it is for OOS students. IU is a very good school as my wife was a 89’ School of Education Grad and my oldest son was a 18’ Kelley School of Business Grad. I hope that it works out for your son.

Yes. I know that some had gotten their scholarships last week and my son’s was awarded just today. Hutton had told us that they had hoped to be finished by the middle of March and from what I’m seeing, they got off to a little slower start from what they had originally intended. Thanks and Good Luck.

Alright thanks

Can you please explain where you are seeing SSA award in portal? IU’s portal has been not too user friendly in our opinion. TIA!

Their portal is tough. You can find the SSA award in 2 places. One is through Student Center. Make sure you go to settings and change the location from Kokomo to Bloomington. Then to the financial aid tab. You can view your awards from there. You can also go to IU Scholarships where you applied for the SSA. Under the “my applications” tab scroll down to the bottom and you can see it listed there. Hope that helps!

Thanks so much, I’ll forward my son this!

Got an email that i did not receive the HHC scholarship

Same. Seemed like a very competitive process. Congrats to all who did!

Hutton rejection email over here too. We’re OOS, so that’s the end of our IU journey.

If you don’t mind, can you please share your son’s stats (GPA and standardized test score)? Also, are you in or out of state? Thank you!

This is from a couple of years ago, so not sure how applicable it is today.

His GPA was around 3.6 if I recall, lots of rigor. ACT 34, SAT 1480.

@KPColorado , out of state. And he didn’t hear until around mid to late March.

Thank you for sharing! We are out-of-state too. My daughter has a 4.2 GPA, 33 ACT and was disappointed she didn’t get any additional SSA money from Hutton Honors, but probably can’t compare stats across different years.

DS received an SSA award for the Hamilton Lugar School. 3k/year, which is better than nothing, but as an OOS student it does not move the needle that much. Notice came via email to his personal account.

Have all the Herbert Presidential scholarship been awarded? Does anyone know?

Yes, I believe so.

Did anyone who applied for the IFLE (integrated freshman learning experience) or the STARS Program get an update?

Does anyone know if waiting on completing the SSA until after hearing about an ED decision elsewhere (mid-Dec) will affect chances of getting a Hutton Honors College scholarship? IU website says: “Complete your SSA and submit your letters of recommendation as early as possible in order to receive priority scholarship consideration from the Hutton Honors College.” But the invitation says “We recommend that you submit your SSA as soon as possible. The application deadline is February 1, 2022 .” Thanks

Based on the SSA scholarship application questions, it appears they are Need-Based.
