<p>I just got notification that I got the CoE 8000$ a year scholarship, but it asks me to confirm by February. I'm still waiting for other decisions that will be released in March - since it appears I won't be able to accept this scholarship by February, does anyone know if UM awards other scholarships that don't require a response so early?</p>
<p>Gee, when someone offers you $8,000 don’t give up on it so easily. Call the office that awarded the money and tell them you need an extension on the time to reply, that you are seriously considering UM but you have other offers to wait for. They will give you the extension.</p>
<p>Would they really give me the extension? Have other people done this before? I can certainly try calling them, but my original question still stands, in case they don’t. :3</p>
<p>I don’t think accepting the scholarship binds you to enrollment into UM. At least, it didn’t say anything about that in the letter. But if I’m wrong, I’d like to know too because I got that scholarship as well.</p>
<p>Yes, they will do that.</p>
