two scholarships possible at UT Austin?

<p>UT-A's Cockrell Eng school offered one scholarship, with the caveat that any other university-linked scholarship will prompt the Engineering school to revise this scholarship; even withdraw it.</p>

<p>Got another scholarship from UT-A's office of the president.</p>

<p>now i don't know if they will co-ordinate with each other and withdraw the lower offer.</p>

<p>Has any one in the past recd 2 scholarships simultaneously from univ-sources?</p>

<p>Call Student Financial Services. And they definitely will know if you’re getting money from multiple places.</p>

<p>I could call them but I would rather not draw their attention to it just yet. That is why I thought I would ask on this forum first. Thanks</p>

<p>It’s better to draw their attention now than later to finalize your finaid.</p>

<p>If both scholarships are the same amount of money and you can keep only one of them, keep the scholarship from the office of the president. Most likely it will have lower GPA requirements and you’ll be able to keep it, if for any reason you decide to change your major (things happen :))</p>

<p>That was my conclusion too, if i had to choose</p>

<p>You do not have to choose. I have received two scholarships from 2 UT departments and they have both confirmed them and neither was affected by the other (the same message was included with mine, that they may be “revised”)</p>

<p>deregon are you an incoming freshman</p>

<p>Yessir, Class of 2017 :slight_smile: I received a scholarship from the Health Science Honors program and the Plan II Honors program.</p>

<p>deregon, it is possible that since you have two different programs, they have let you keep one scholarship for each program. my feeling is that since i have only engineering hnors alone, they will ask me to give up the lesser one</p>

<p>I do not see why they would lessen your scholarship unless both of them combined covered the entire cost of attendance. Call them and ask!</p>
