<p>I think that the aid package seems very reasonable. Upon admission First of all congrats to D on the great scholarship. she recieved a received a 3600 academic achievement award (for underrepresented groups at the college) . She got invited to and attended scholarship Weekend where she ended up receiving a scholarship for 3/4 of the tuition. </p>

<p>Did D receive any of the 3 academic/service awards listed on the school's FA website?</p>

<p><a href="http://admission.hiram.edu/apply/scholarshippolicy.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://admission.hiram.edu/apply/scholarshippolicy.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>If she did the site specifically states;</p>

<p>The additional scholarships below (including the one your D received) are available in conjunction with the three awards noted above .</p>

<p>If this is the case, then by all means request the add-on of the scholarship money to D's package. If not, to me it just seems as she has got up graded, not that some one "took" something from her.</p>

<p>Your best bet is to call the FA office and get the direct answer from them.</p>

<p>WOW, that is what she got. I agree that it is a reasonable package but as the web site saids "in conjunction". I will request it as an add on. Thanks - I knew I read some where that it was an add on but I couldn't think where.
