Still waiting to receive the Buckeye (and Provost) award letter. OOS. Is this normal?
Son found out by letter sent February 20 that he got the Buckeye Scholarship without the other supplemental ones (Trustees, etc.)
son got his in the mail today, it was just the buckeye scholarship, very thrilled.
@jonsnow1 Congratulations to your son. Do you mind sharing your home state?
Son found out in letter that arrived today that he got the buckeye. From WV. Yeah. Good luck everyone.
thank you and new jersey, the letter was addressed feb 26th.
.
Did anybody get a postcard who the buckeye
Got
i got the financial aid postcard a day or so before the buckeye scholarship letter.
Thanks! Hopefully some good news will come our way!!!
Just saw on USPS Informed Delivery that a letter from OSU is being delivered today. From what I can read, it looks like the letter starts with, “I am delighted to notify you that…” For those that have received the National Buckeye, is this how your letter began?
Yes - that sounds like its the scholarship
USPS Informed delivery shows two letters from OSU for delivery today. One says “Your financial aid offer is coming. Are you ready?” and the other one is an envelope and I cannot see beyone Dear and it is addressed by Undergraduate Admissions.
From what we received, the first is just a postcard but doesn’t have any details. The window envelope for us was a scholarship offer.
My son received his National Buckeye award notification in the mail today. We are so happy (and relieved.)
My son also learned that he got the Buckeye Scholarship. Without it, we would have had to make some tough decisions among several great school options, but the scholarship was a game changer and immediately shot OSU to the top of the list. He will be a Buckeye…so excited! Went online and bought all types of Buckeye gear.
My son received Buckeye Scholarship in mail on Friday. We are in Florida and it was dated February 26th. He was admitted in mid-December.
@whs2016 Did you get an email his FAFSA was processed that day? My daughter got an email and her financial aid online shows it was processed on the 26th, but no awards show. Do you see anything online yet? We’re getting down to some decisions here and if she gets the Buckeye scholarship we’ll need to make a quick visit.
We did not file a FAFSA. I understand your concern over making a visit. We had a visit scheduled for last weekend we canceled due to the fact my son hadn’t received any merit scholarship at the time. You can call admissions and they can let you know if your daughter has received the buckeye scholarship as the mail is often 4 or 5 days late in notification. I do believe this year’s notifications have been delayed. I have a junior at OSU who receives the buckeye and provost and received notifications much earlier in the process. Good luck.
