<p>My daughter was just about to submit her application for this scholarship (deadline of Feb. 15). She just discovered that the link to the application form has (very recently!) disappeared, so called the admissions office. The receptionist said she thought they might not be offering the scholarship this year, but could not find an admissions officer to verify this. Now my daughter is waiting for a call back. Meanwhile, she will still need to spend several hours finishing things up, plus UPS two-day shipping costs. If anyone has an update on this scholarship, please let me know! Thank you!</p>
<p>Hi Harperlee, we inquired about this as well. The admissions office explained that they decided to give all the merit aid up front with no extra application. So for merit, the award in your acceptance letter is it. Of course your D may receive need based aid but the Hatfield is gone.</p>
<p>Thank you, lab317! This would have been nice to know before my daughter had two recommendation letters prepared for this specific scholarship. Strange that they never updated their website with some type of notification of the change. I do appreciate your update, as we are still waiting on guidance directly from the university, despite two phone calls with admissions.</p>
<p>Please post if I received incorrect info. We’d like to know.</p>
<p>Yes, lab317, we did get clear guidance from admissions on Friday that is consistent with what you were told – that the Hatfield will not be offered this year.</p>
<p>Thanks for the info.</p>
