<p>So I got accepted EA in business. I get very good grades, but I don't have much else going for me. However, I was offered 20 thousand a year in scholarship money (I didn't even apply for financial aid). I was pretty excited about this, but it was curious because I didn't get into the Honors Program. Furthermore, my letter said I recieved the Dean's Scholarship, but on the website it says this scholarshop doesn't exceed 17,000 dollars. </p>
<p>I was just wondering what money other people received.</p>
<p>The Dean Scholarship does increase every year, I believe, as in 2008 (when I applied EA that fall) it was capped at $16,000 then it went up to $17,000 so that could be old info on the website.</p>
<p>Yikes! Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth! Congratulations…I’m still waiting in NJ, my daughter applied EA but she’s out so I’m stalking her account (she forgot to turn off the auto fill for forms ) Nothing !!</p>
<p>I got the excellence scholarship for $10,000/year and some loans that aren’t even really worth it. I was worried about getting in, so I’m ecstatic about getting a scholarship haha!</p>
<p>I got in with the deans scholarship for 20k! Also honors college. I had heard that National Merit Finalists got full tuition, is that true? Because I am a semi finalist, and full tuition would be greatly appreciated :)</p>
<p>i got into honors program and received deans scholarship $20k/freshman year, but $10k for full semester (is that a year? or half year?) i’m so confused is this saying that my scholarship gets reduced in half after freshman yr?</p>
<p>cherryfilter, the first year is given as an annual, after that it’s per semester that you’re in class, because you don’t get it while you’re on co-op.</p>
<p>The reason you guys are seeing the “freshman year”/“semester” number is that you won’t be in classes every semester after freshman year. A year is 2 semesters. $20k for a year = 10k for 1 semester. You’ll do a whole year of class as a freshman, receiving 10k per semester. Then you’ll switch to co-op cycles as a sophomore (or middler) when you aren’t paying tuition and thus NU doesn’t need to give you money, so you’re just getting scholarship during semesters you’re paying for.</p>
<p>You are ALWAYS getting 10k per semester of class.</p>
I am wondering exactly the same thing. The $20k is great, but it doesn’t make the total cost anywhere near as low as some of my other options. I’m going to email the person on the scholarships website to find out what’s up.</p>
