scholarships?

<p>wait, since when does UIUC give scholarships??? i got a letter in the mail worth 16k over 4 years.. it's called the university achievement scholarship or something like that.. anyone else get it??</p>

<p>I got that one too.</p>

<p>what were yall's stats if you don't mind me asking?</p>

<p>It is available only to out-of-state students. A number are awarded, $4,000 a year, to highly qualified students based on class rank and test score (and what is required each year can vary). It is essentially a discount on out-of-state tuition designed to entice such students to attend even though $4,000 a year still means you pay substantially more than in-state students.</p>

<p>Does anyone know if I have a good chance for getting into the Honors Program now that I have received this scholarship? Have they already sent out honors information?</p>

<p>GPA: 3.7UW, 4.1W
ACT: 33 (35M, 33S, 33W, 30R)
SAT: 2040 (760M, 610CR, 670W with a 12 essay)
EC: 3 years of Softball, Math Team, FIRST Robotics, Church Youth Group
Senior Year: Calculus 3 MultiVariable Functions, Differential Equations, AP Physics B, AP Literature, AP Spanish, AP Environmental Science, Honors Consumer Ec
Past APs: 3 AP Language, 4 AP Stats, 5 AP Calculus BC
Location: South Carolina, but 3 of my high school years were in IL. Even though I got this scholarship, I'll still be paying a lot more compared to what I would have paid if I never moved.</p>

<p>I got it also. 34ACT, 3.6UW GPA, 4.3W GPA, female in electrical engineering</p>

<p>3.92 UW gpa, 8/237 and a 2240 SAT I. wow.. can someone explain to me why im choosing not to go to UIUC even tho it's in the top 5 in the nation for my major and i only have to pay about 2-3k a year?</p>

<p>Chemaddict17, how do you figure it's only 2 -3 K a year after the scholarship, when you are in PA?</p>

<p>BAAH! Wheres mine :( . Darn cracker jacks. I am assuming financial aid is getting sent out now?</p>

<p>Damitssam, made me laugh first thing in the morning, thanks! I hope they find more to send out...</p>
