<p>Hey guys! So today I received my financial package, and I am very happy with it! ^.^ However, I have also received some outside scholarships, and I was wondering if anyone knows how that fits in with my Vassar Scholarship. I know the loan goes first, but what if outside scholarships can cover the loan plus some? Do they reduce your family contribution next, or will they take it from the Scholarship Award? Thanks!</p>
<p>bump, I need to know this,too!</p>

<p>Your expected family contribution is never reduced due to an outside scholarship. that wouldn’t make much sense…</p>
<p>It will change the entire package, perhaps not significantly but it will change. Let the FAO know ASAP so they can send you a revised package.</p>
