<p>@walkingdead1480 I would call and ask for a re-evaluation of your application b/c i know peeps with much lower stats than yours ( about 2100 and 3.5 GPA) who got the trustee
As for my stats: SAT 2310 (didn’t expect it), 3.8-3.9 GPA, SAT II (BAD): 660 Bio, 490 Chem <- scientific skillz :-), 710 Math II, 740 Lit, 750 USH
I def agree with thejerseygirl, the whole system’s a lottery</p>

<p>@silazar
Do I call the financial aid department or call the Dean for a re-evaluation?
When should I do this, after I found out about other colleges in March or now?
Also should I submit new material? (ECs)</p>

<p>It’s probably cause my CR reading score was low… T_T. I’m ranked 10/400… sigh</p>

43

<p>@silazar that’s a crap-ton of SAT IIs. Why.
And if it cheers you up, I got a 650 on the bio! Then again, that was after a three year gap from honors bio and a few weeks of AP bio. Woooo</p>

<p>@mynameismott haha thanks, does cheer me up and my basket-full of SAT II’s is b/c my parents have this weird idea that I’m good at science (farthest thing from the truth) and the rest I took to make up for the bad scores on the first ones. Basically a cruel cycle :-)</p>

<p>@walkingdead1480 hmm good question i’m not sure but maybe call the financial aid office (just a suggestion) and ask about the new material submission. Also looking at your class rank, you must have a high GPA so it might have been an over-sight on their part (again my opinion not the absolute truth) —> check out this thread 'cause one poster experienced your exact dilemma (sorry if I didn’t post it right, new to CC and extremely confused with the workings) <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/rutgers/1028033-rutgers-presidential-scholarship-c-o-2015-a-3.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/rutgers/1028033-rutgers-presidential-scholarship-c-o-2015-a-3.html&lt;/a&gt; look at page 3</p>

<p>Could it be that I filed my FAFSA really early and they knew I didn’t really need the merit scholarship?</p>

<p>The thing is that she got 2380 on the SATs, which is probably why she got presidential.</p>

<p>Presidential would be great, but I’m really hoping for Trustee (10k) cause its the most reachable</p>

46

<p>I received a notification yesterday for the Presidential Scholarship for EBS and CAS New Brunswick!!! :smiley: Surprisingly though, my SAT superscored was 2230… I guess because my M+CR were above 1500 that they bothered considering me?</p>

47

<p>Congrats swiftwind, you’re so lucky. my M+CR were only 1450, maybe thats why T_T</p>

48

<p>Just an update from post #32.</p>

<p>ahhh I just sent in my FAFSA a couple of days ago. Will they run out of money before they can offer me a scholarship?</p>

51

<p>The FAFSA isn’t used for evaluating merit scholarships. As long as you submitted your application before December 1st and wrote the essay you will be considered for merit scholarships.</p>

52

<p>@golfbs14 what were your scores? and whats the national scholarship o-O</p>

53

<p>Does anyone know who I should call for a re-evaluation?</p>

54

<p>Emailed them, and they said they couldn’t upgrade it. I’m pretty disappointed.</p>

55

<p>How did you find out about the scholarship information. Was it posted on the portal or sent via email or snail mail. My D was accepted for Engineering, RBS and Arts and Sciences back in November and have not heard back as to merit scholarships at this point.</p>

56

<p>Email, or <a href=“https://studentaid.rutgers.edu/new/default.asp[/url]”>https://studentaid.rutgers.edu/new/default.asp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

57

<p>Did anyone receive merit scholarships for Pharmacy?
I see lots of posts for other schools, but I haven’t seen anyone for pharmacy.</p>

58

<p>Yes, I received Scarlett (3500 per year) to Pharmacy.
What is the trustee scholarship everyone has mentioned? I do not see it anywhere. I see a James Dickson Carr …</p>

<p>Honors the first African-American Rutgers graduate. This scholarship reflects our commitment to enrolling a student body that is broadly diverse in terms of experience, socioeconomic background, geography, special skills, and talents</p>

<p>Does that imply I need to be African American to be considered?</p>

59

<p>Can someone help me out? lol i didnt get any scholarship and i feel like i should at least get a little bit…</p>
