Scholarship Notification

<p>How is this usually handled?</p>

<p>Tomorrow is decision day and I've heard back (no) from only one of the dozens of scholarship opportunities I applied for.</p>

<p>Is it rude to call to try and find out?</p>

<p>I dont want to be pushy.</p>

<p>A lot of scholarship notifications do not come until May. It won’t be rude, but they probably won’t answer you, but I don’t think it can hurt to try. Unfortunately, that is just how it is. </p>

<p>Are there any specific scholarships you are asking about? Many of the big ones have it posted on here or on their websites when they are announced (roughly).</p>

<p>if these are 1 years scholarships, I do not recommend basing your college decision on them. Costs will only increase over the next few years and you don’t want to start out somewhere you can’t afford next year</p>

<p>^ Why not, can’t you always transfer back to your state university?</p>

<p>No, you can’t “always” transfer back to your state university. You have to apply and be accepted, just like now. And there isn’t always room for transfers.</p>

<p>If you base your college decision on “I can always transfer”, you’re heading for a potential nightmare.</p>

<p>An incoming school might not take some of your transfer credits.</p>
