Does anyone know if you get Dean's Scholarship, you are no longer in consideration for Chancellor's? Has anyone received both? If so, how is funding appropriated?

Nice, but hardly life changing given how much school costs.

Yes, 10k is correct. While KnightDoc is also correct that it’s not a life changing amount, I’m grateful nonetheless. Honestly, more meaningful than the money is just being selected for the award; my app is far from perfect and not one you would expect to be scholarship-worthy. I put in a lot of work to get to a place that an acceptance would be a possibility, let alone a Dean’s Scholarship. So, although I’m grateful for the 10k, the recognition means a lot more to me.

Does anyone know if you choose to accept the dean's scholarship, or any other scholarship for that matter, if they take that as a commitment to enroll? The email they sent says "Please confirm your acceptance of this award, in writing via email, to this office, no later than April
--, 2022."

Don't want to have to email back and ask since that's somewhat awkward.

Congratulations!! Just wondering, did you have to apply for the Dean’s scholarship or was it just awarded to you based on your entire app?
 
Anyone know if need based aid in the form of grants are a thing here? I know many state schools strictly offer merit aid, was just curious if anyone got anything for need based aid other than loans.

How do you get your financial aid package? Is the only thing you have to fill out FAFSA or are there other forms to fill out
 
Admissions said it won’t start until Mid-May

It takes a while for the dominoes to fall:

those who got into harvard must withdraw from mount sinai. Those who got into sinai off the WL must withdraw from brown. Those who got into brown of the WL must withdraw from rutgers.

Big simplification, but i think WL movement takes time to trickle down from the top schools to the bottom schools.

It’s also possible they might have to meet as a committee once again to look at their waitlist and create a ranking.

That's all well and good, but it really makes it hard to figure out housing/leases, gap year plans, etc...

I was told by admissions wed see movement starting early this week. What do you think they mean by that because it is Tuesday. Do you think they need to have another committee meeting?!

After reaching out to admissions after getting my “highest priority of high priority” waitlist they said this week it would probably start. I reached out again the other day and they said maybe towards the end of the month

I was on the phone w admissions and they told me HPWL has not yet been ranked but then later said they haven’t ranked anyone beyond the top 20 in the HPWL. Sounds like a round about way to say they *have* ranked the HPWL?


Can someone confirm if they have indeed ranked the HPWL?

They have a system where there's a "highest" HPWL of the top 10-20 students. The rest are unranked from my understanding

My b i meant: have they already ranked those top 10-20 or are they waiting until like the end of the month/whenever they said more movement would occur?

The end of the month 🙃🙃🙃. That is just disrespectful
 
So we’re all pretty certain that *no* WL has occured? Or just that it hasn’t been enough to go beyond the highest HPWL?

Because the former sounds highly unlikely, WL movement generally always occurs.
