<p>I heard on another post on CC and correct me if I am wrong-I hope I am. If you are taken off the waitlist you don't get financial Aid??? This seems like it is wrong but I need to know for sure. Thanks for any help. I know the chances of getting off the waitlist are slim-but it won't be worth staying on if there won't be any Fin Aid.</p>
<p>I dont think that this information is correct to any extent. I personally know someone who was taken off the waitlist, yet given full financial aid.</p>
<p>I thought so- just glad to hear it confirmed. I didn't want my son to gt his hopes up if he got off the waitlist. So I bet Merit scholarships are out though. Being they are probabbly given to RD and Eders first. Well we will ahve to wait it out! thanks! :)</p>
<p>Best of luck with the decisions.:)</p>
<p>From "Kenyon in the News":
Dean of Admissions and Financial Aid Jennifer Britz was quoted in the May 20 Los Angeles Times in a story about college wait lists. Writer Stuart Silverstein reported that many colleges favor wealthier students when deciding who to admit from the wait list because financial aid resources have typically been tapped out by the time those admissions are decided. Britz said that she was pleasantly surprised in May to have financial aid money left over to offer students on the wait list.</p>
