<p>any idea when this will begin?</p>
<p>when does AU typically begin to send out merit offers?</p>
<p>thanks!</p>
<p>I think they notify you around March in letter forms.</p>
<p>I got an e-mail in March, I think.</p>
<p>D heard in mid March last year…good luck!</p>
<p>Here I thought I could assist by checking D’s acceptance letter, only to find it was unhelpfully dated “April 2009”! Of course we never saved the envelope. I think it came in pretty close to April 1, though, which may have had something to do with the fact that she had to audition for her program, and the package also included a very useful critique of her performance. Her merit award and admission to Honors were referenced in the acceptance letter.</p>
