My daughter was emailed after she submitted her EA application and “invited” to apply for the College Scholar award. Is that just a pro forma? In looking at previous years’ threads, it doesn’t look like the College Scholar Award offers more aid than the Dean’s Scholarship if awarded but does slow down the notification process. Did others apply for College Scholar?

My Son applied EA and he was also emailed about the College Scholar award. At his campus interview, the host suggested that there was a financial award with this scholarship in addition to the Dean’s Scholarship.

Hoping to hear soon. We did a pre-read through athletics.

The College Scholar has a higher annual max than the Dean’s. This year it is a max of $40K vs. a max of $37K for Dean’s.

Thanks. It looks like some people found out prior to that date in earlier years so I wasn’t sure if it was really a “by 12/31” instead of an “on”

Not sure. It seemed like it might be a little earlier when we spoke to FA, but I like to assume later and be pleasantly surprised when it comes earlier.

Congratulations! Did you apply for College Scholar scholarship?

Did your daughter end up applying for it?

@dogdoo Sorry, that wasn’t very clear and I can’t see how to edit. Did your daughter end up applying for the College Scholar? Do you think those applications take longer than ones that don’t try for College Scholar?

Yes she did. We haven’t heard anything yet, but in reading previous years’ posts, it looks like it takes longer for those decisions to come out. But who knows.

Have they released them earlier in other years?

Wait so some have heard EA already? When did you submit the application?

How do you apply for it? She was awarded the Deans Scholarship but is there a special application for the College Scholar? Thank you!

There is a special application for the College Scholar scholarship. The deadline is tied to the type of application your student used. So, for EA, it was due in November like the Common App. On their website, they now have the deadline for RD applicants.

Ty. I had no idea. Can a candidate receive both the college scholar and Dean scholarship?
