thank you for your honesty
Has anyone attended SCAD day? Considering going in February. We are hoping to learn more about the performing arts major and meet some professors and students. When we visited in the spring, it was on a Friday so no classes were in session. TIA
We just went to the Feb SCAD day- if you didnāt and might go in the future, happy to fill you in on it.
Hello! I wanted to follow up on this thread and see if anyone has received any additional merit money after being given the distinguished scholar award. Iāve heard itās the max award they give outside of the couple rare full tuition named scholarships, but does that truly mean they wonāt tack on an additional money at all?
Iāve heard that SCAD will sometimes add more incentive money with time as the decision date approaches but I donāt know how true this is. Weāll definitely try to negotiate through the counselor but wanted to get a sense of how likely it might be vs. a hard line after that 20k award is given. 35k/year is still hefty obviously so any extra would help.
Thanks for any experience or advice you can share!

Thank you. My D got accepted to her ED school right before we were due to go to SCAD day. I hope it was a good experience. I really really like the school!

How exciting! Congrats and yes, SCAD seems great so far.
Itās so tough to help them make these decisions! Hoping we can leverage another offer we have for 26k/year but Iām worried they may tell us thereās nothing else they can do. We just got the distinguished scholar award a couple weeks ago so itās new for us. Have you tried to talk to them more about it yet?
We havenāt yet. Our d put in for the scad challenge competition so we are praying she wins something from that. But we are doing the same thingā¦.hoping to utilize other offers to bring the price down a bit. We just canāt hack 30 plus

I wanted to say congratulations to those who interviewed for and received the full tuition scholarship! If youāre on here, Iād love to hear about your gpa and your art.
My son is considering applying but we are really unsure about the requirements. Also, Iād like to hear about those who received a scholarship. Thank you!
My daughter received a $10,000 academic scholarship and submitted 2 monologues for a $10,000 artistic scholarship. I believe the admissions reps are quite readily available to answer questions.
