My daughter, who was accepted last week via EA, noticed a To Do on MyUMBC regarding Financial Aid. When she clicked through, she got the following:
Merit Scholarship Agreement
To accept or decline your award, please click the following link:
Response and Agreement eForm
However, when she tried to click through to the eForm, even using Firefox or IE as suggested, nothing came up, or she got a Java error.
Anybody else experience this? Anyone able to get to the content?
OK … figured it out with the help of one of the folks in the UMBC merit aid office. If you have this link on UMBC, you must upgrade your myUMBC account, use Firefox or IE as your browser, and ensure you have the latest version of Java on your machine.
A little bit of work? It was worth it. DD was awarded a 15K / yr UMBC Excellence Award. Nice.
How exciting! My son did it…the process of upgrading is a little time consuming, but he had a modest scholarship offer awaiting acceptance. I hope there is more $ up for consideration as they progress through the honors review process.
Congratulations on the 15k award! Are you in or out of state? My son received an award in the mail yesterday, smaller than that, but we’re in-state. Nearly covered tuition.
Thank you @Photonmaker . Yes, DD is out of state, so that’s why the award seems higher.
