Has anyone heard any additional info. regarding aid or scholarships? Have the Johnson Scholarship invites gone out? This threat has been quiet for several weeks.
Merit Scholarship info came along with the admission decision. DD recieved Johnson Scholar semi finalist info and next step email today.
I received an email yesterday that I’m a Johnson Scholarship semi-finalist. By the end of Feb, SCU will send questions for a video interview and field is then narrowed to 30 finalists. Then there is an on-campus interview and writing assignment during Apr 3 - 4 Scholarship Weekend. Those 30 are competing for between 5 and 10 Johnson Scholarships. I’m honored and excited but it’s a pretty narrow apex at the top of that pyramid.
Yes, it is an honor being in that group and you can only GO FOR IT as best you can. Good job!
PS. If you are willing to share, what did SCU give you in initial merit? Did you get the Presidential or 1/2 tuition (forgot what its called) or the Deans?
Sure … $18K Dean’s plus incentive grant of 2.5K. My stats are good but my ECs (community service) are probably what helped the most. I know it’s a long shot but Johnson’s Scholarship would make a big difference and would tip the scales toward SCU vs some higher ranked schools I may get into.
I know that this thread is kind of dead but if anyone can respond to this, much appreciated!!!
I got accepted to SCU (did Early Action) and was awarded about 19K financial aid(including loads + work-study) but today, when I tried to check my financial aid amount to make sure, it says no financial aid information is found. Does this mean that they took away my financial aid?
Johnson Scholarship semi-finalists were supposed to hear last week if they were selected as finalists. I’ve heard nothing … anyone else get a notification? In any case, I doubt finalists will be going to campus for the interviews and workshops April 3 - 4.
Received email that Johnson semi-finalists would be notified today if they were finalists but I didn’t hear anything. Does that mean I wasn’t selected as a finalist? Any other semi out there get an email yet?
