Hello,
My son was admitted to SCU Early Action for Engineering in December. When will the merit scholarship notifications come out? He’s been admitted to several other great engineering schools so merit from SCU would be a huge factor, given its hefty price tag. Does anyone know timing of the award notifications?
STATS: 3.82 unweighted, 4.4 weighted GPA, 1470 SAT (770 math), 9 AP’S, computer service project, varsity golf all 4 years etc.
I was given my merit scholarship on the day decisions came out.
Ok thanks, back in December?
My D received EA decision on Dec. 11 and FA notification on Dec. 12.
You probably got something. Unlike other schools, SCU didn’t sent a tidy 1 pager with all the costs and loans and such. It was very simple. Our award was really disappointing (and leaves us 18,000 above our FAFSA EFC) but from reading past years, Santa Clara doesn’t give much merit.
We did get something right after the admission decision notification…just missed it. So much going on these days;) Thanks to all of you, we did go back and look. Son got about $8k per year. Stats: SAT 1470, Weighted GPA 4.4 with 9 AP’s, great computer community service project etc.
