Scholarships

<p>yeah i didnt get anything from NYU today</p>

<p>There’s a Stern scholarship? Wow I wish I applied for Financial Aid… How much is the scholarship?</p>

<p>The Stern Scholarship is for $3,500, at least the one I received.</p>

<p>My Stern scholarship was 7,500 for each semester. I’m assuming this is each year? Hopefully it is</p>

<p>Like I said, I believe I was in the lower end of the accepted student’s pool for Stern. It make sense that I as get a smaller merit scholarship than someone with better stats.
I hope it is each year. I think it would be safe to assume so as most scholarships are.</p>

<p>on your financial aid award letter, did it specifically say stern scholarship, b/c i got a trustee scholarship but nothing that said stern scholarship. jw</p>

<p>It specifically says “Stern Scholarship”.</p>

<p>and im assuming that this was based on merit? do u mind sharing your stats… i had a 1450, and 93 uw gpa… did you get a trustee scholarship?</p>

<p>Presidents Scholarship and MLK were only for CAS applicants right?</p>

<p>My stats are on this page.

<p>No, I did not get a trustee scholarship. I got a Stern Scholarship and a J. Eckhouse Scholarship.</p>

<p>My financial aid for Stern for this academic year (09-10) was 10k in a Stern Trustee Scholarship (5k a semester) and 2k per semester in work study (but they allot the entire amount at the beginning so you can earn as much as you can in the first). I did not take any loans nor did I qualify for grants or stuff…</p>

<p>From my understanding, there are many scholarhips and grants that are given out by NYU for those with financial aid and some for those without any need. A few are for a set amount (like MLK or Presidential) but most are for varying amounts based on what it is determined your total package will be. So if someone gets a Stern, Steinhardt or Trustee scholarship, it will be for whatever amount they want it to be. If they want you to attend, their total package will be better.</p>

<p>anybody know what the difference is between a stern and a trustee scholarship. and has anybody gotten both?</p>

<p>My Steinhardt Scholarship is $10,000 per year</p>

<p>Is the Trustee Scholarship merit based?</p>

<p>Almost nothing is merit based, yet everything seems merit based. </p>

<p>You are admitted twice if you don’t have money. You get admitted once if you spend and have money. </p>

<p>Isn’t that great.</p>

<p>I got in ED, and my parents called and asked about the FA. The people at NYU said that the school scholarships (Steinhardt, Stern, Tisch ect.) are based on a combination of merit and need, and that your FA package is going to be pretty much the same for all four years. </p>

<p>I got $15,00 Steinhardt scholarship, $2,000 Opportunity Grant, $4,000 Work Study and all the rest loans. It was much better then I expected.</p>
