<p>Has anyone received a scholarship to main campus? I am an in state student and i have received money from another school (UConn) and thought i would receive some from penn state as well especially because i am in state . I was wondering how you were notified and how much your award is valued at. Also, because penn state has so many applicants do they have less opportunity to give out scholarships. Thanks in advance for any help!!</p>
<p>My D received the Provost award which is 6k per year. We are OOS. Some of the individual colleges/departments award scholarships. I read on another thread here that someone received a scholarship from the College of Liberal Arts for 4k per year. You can contact the college that you are majoring in for more information. Normally Penn State awards very few scholarships though.</p>
<p>My son received $6,000 /yr and we are in state. We very surprised to receive it because Penn State typically does not give merit money. This is the first year that they are giving these awards from what I have heard.</p>
<p>Do you mind if i ask what your D’s stats were??</p>
<p>D has a 3.7 GPA and SAT of 1870. She took 3 AP classes and 10 honors classes. I’m not sure what they based the Provost award on but we were of course very pleased to have received it. Without the scholarship probably would have had to look at more affordable schools.</p>
<p>You should have gotten them already taylorrae…What were your stats ?</p>
