When/do they award merit based scholarships?

<p>Does anyone know I am really worried because I still haven’t heard anything… Ive only received loans so far</p>

<p>I’m in the same boat, but I think it is all that will happen. They have received pretty massive cuts.</p>

<p>I got some $$$$ from financial aid, but not much… also loans…</p>

<p>I think you can pretty much forget about any “Free” money this year.</p>

<p>Last year (2008) I was a National Merit Finalist, second in my High School graduating class, loads of AP credit etc, etc. and all I got was a $1000 Grant and loan offers. NO other merit money. I suspect this year will be even worse. Don’t go to Cal Poly if you expect a lot of “Merit” $$$.</p>

<p>Sorry.</p>

<p>I’m a national merit scholar this year, and I got my award a while ago. Only $1,000 and loan offers though.</p>

<p>So are the scholarships listed on the pdf thing for second year students, etc.???</p>
