<p>Has anyone recieved any information about scholarhships yet?</p>
<p>It seems like they are sending scholarship information a bit later this year. I think in past years they notified as early as Jan 12th.</p>
<p>We haven’t heard anything yet about scholarships. We are trying to be patient. Has anyone else heard yet?</p>
<p>We keep checking the mail, but nothing so far. I am thinking it has to be by the end of this week.</p>
<p>I called admissions this AM. After getting a little bit of a runaround, I was told that letters would be mailed “shortly”, whatever that means.</p>
<p>Thanks for the update. So shortly could mean next week, IMHO.</p>
<p>Got the big envelope in the mail today, but we live pretty close. Happy news.</p>
<p>got my letter today, got the Heritage Award 
but I live close to UMBC too, so you might not get yours for a few more days</p>
<p>Our daughter received her scholarship offer from UMBC too today as well. But like multimom and shootingstarzz, we are also Maryland residents.</p>
<p>I’m a MD resident, nothing here yet. Hopefully tomorrow.</p>
<p>Got the Heritage award as well. MD resident and I live pretty close, so maybe that’s why I got mine today…</p>
<p>Shootingstarzz and Wildcat94 would you be willing to share your stats, major? …and where else you may have applied. Many thanks.</p>
<p>I was lucky enough to get offered the University Scholar Award. I have not seen that listed anywhere and can’t find any ifo on it when I google it. Anyone know anything about this? Anyone else get offered this?</p>
<p>Kaylynf: How much was the award and was it sent from the President’s office?</p>
<p>Meyerhoff selection weekend invite was in today’s mail!!! LOVE UMBC!</p>
<p>My son was admitted and offered the President’s Fellows award. Got the letter yesterday.
We’re about 50 miles from UMBC. I read about the Honors College at UMBC. I’m trying to get information about the program. Do you need to apply for it, or is it by invitation only?</p>
<p>I called about the University Scholar Award (18K a yr x 4 yrs) and it is brand new this year. Very generous. I wasn’t expecting so much and now deciding on a college has just gotten even harder.</p>
<p>S was also offered the University Scholar Award. I looked for it on the website and couldn’t find any mention of it. Thanks for the clarification.</p>
<p>I got an Academic Enhancement Award for $8000. Not a lot, but ill take it!</p>
<p>Congratulations and a question for those who received scholarship offers from UMBC today. Did you apply by the Nov 1 early action deadline or after Nov 1?</p>
