I googled, and it looks like there was an admitted students day for the new students admitted for spring 2022 (it was in October). Maybe they haven’t updated their site yet? I do not know for sure, though.

Same as Vicky2019 = DD was accepted and received official letter but no mention of the scholarship upon her initial acceptance. That came a few weeks later and it is merit. Congrats to your student’s acceptance and they could still receive merit - you should hear from them soon if it’s in play. We haven’t yet done the FAFSA yet either!

Thanks. That’s very helpful. We received the acceptance letter yesterday and hope some merit can come in later

If you hear anything about an accepted students’ day, please post here. We were looking for one also, considering we were only able to tour the school on our own during Thanksgiving break when campus was deserted (we knew it would be like that, but we just didn’t have any other time we could do so). We are limited in visiting since we are OOS, about 9 hours away by car. Was hoping we could sign up for an admitted students’ tour…

If you have Facebook, go onto group called “paying for college 101” and you will get many responses.

For the people whose children have gotten merit money and got a letter a few weeks after your acceptance letters, do they also post the merit money on your student portal?
didn’t see it in the portal. had received a postal mail

“2022-23 Financial Aid processing timeline
New fall 2022 admitted students: financial aid award notifications will be sent to a student’s FAFSA email address, beginning mid-February 2022.”

@Mercer250 - Congrats! Was the scholarship included in your offer letter? Also, is it conditional (e…g. ongoing GPA, etc.)
I know I had my scholarship in my letter. I guess some people didn’t. I will get my final financial aid information in mid February. Which is when they release it for everyone. So, don’t be discouraged if they didn’t include a scholarship as of right now. I’m sure it’ll change when you get your letter in mid February.
