<p>I heard some applicants have already received admissions. Did anyone get one?</p>

2

<p>Applicants selected for the Monroe Scholars Program received their admissions acceptances on Saturday. These came by regular mail. See the “Big White Envelope” thread.</p>

3

<p>OOS Monroe Scholars have begun receiving their acceptance packages now, as well. My son - Ohio - received his today. See thread as mentioned above.</p>

<p>When will the Non-Monroe Scholars receive their admissions decisions? Does anybody know?</p>

10

<p>Those of you who got tuition scholarships – that is separate from the Monroe program, but it’s not the Murray Scholarship? Does it have a name?</p>

11

<p>Any non-scholarship recipients found out so far?</p>

12

<p>I am also interested in where the tuition scholarships are coming from… for my own curiosity… perhaps they are W&M Scholar Awards?</p>

13

<p>Any idea how much scholarship money is given to Monroe Scholars or is it based on financial need?</p>

14

<p>

</p>

<p>Me too - I know this sounds bad, but given the number of “full tuition” scholarship reports on here, the next time I get a fund-raising call, I think I’m gonna pass.</p>

<p>I’ve contributed 4 years of full-rate tuition, books, and various cash gifts over the years - not to mention state taxes. If the school has this much money to give that many full-ride, non-need-based scholarships, I have to say, I’ve done enough. Call the students / families who got those full-rides for fund-raising, not me.</p>

15

<p>Monroe Scholars is not a scholarship per se. It is a program, rather like an Honors program, with special housing for Freshman and a $3,000 stipend to be used before your senior year. There is no scholarship money, as such, attached to it.</p>

16

<p>I’m from Houston and I got my acceptance letter a few days ago. I am also a Monroe Scholar.</p>

17

<p>

</p>

<p>you can choose what your money is used for when you donate (if you specify), and you can therefore make sure it goes to something you support whether it is a department, the library, or athletics.</p>

18

<p>any guess as to when we will find out decisions?</p>

19

<p>i hope soon!!</p>
