<p>So I know Scripps considers all applicants for the non-specific, general, non-competitive merit-based scholarships, but does that mean I should check the yes or no to this question? I don't want to apply for the James E. Scripps Scholarship or New Generation and Leonetti Scholarships, as those deadlines have already passed. I just want to be considered for the Trustee and President ones, like everybody else. I am not actually "applying" because everyone is considered, so do I check "no"?</p>
<p>I’m thinking it’s a no, for the reasons you mention. When is the Scripps deadline? If you didn’t have to submit last night, you could always call the admissions office to double check.</p>
<p>Just an update - all applicants are considered for merit aid at Scripps, regardless of whether they apply for early or regular decision. There’s no longer a specific deadline to be considered for merit aid.</p>
<p>thank you, haleyalex10.</p>
