If anyone would like to keep others updated on scholarships, list the school here. You don't have to say how much, but it would be nice to keep track of which schools have offered them already.

@ToothbrushBuddy, you are the BOMB! Wow!

I know from Facebook that UNC offered at least one person a scholarship over the phone today.

Also, I learned that Case is offering scholarships over the phone throughout the week, so there is still hope for everyone on that. 🙂

I feel like, in the past, scholarships were some fantastical mystery that never existed. Now, they're everywhere...

agree. but maybe we weren't paying close enough attention before to notice them.

Maybe SDN has started really attracting the types of folks who qualify for scholarships. 🙂 Many people on here seem VERY qualified.

Nothing about this process seems real until it finally happens to you, all I can say is I'm glad everything is finally tangible (admission offers AND scholarships)!

Well I said it because I spent a lot of time researching it and rarely heard anything. Anyhow, WHEW! Only thing to worry about now is all those finals I forgot about!

LOL! I'm still not quite decided. I am sort of choosing between money (ECU) vs. closeness to long-term boyfriend and family (UNC), though there are certainly other things that go into it. However, I'd only be 1.5 hours away from him at ECU, so it's doable (although not ideal, since we've already been semi-long-distance throughout undergrad). Money talks, though. ~70k savings over four years is something to really consider. Even if ECU isn't as well established, I still have a lot of faith in the program. Both schools have some "intangibles" that are hard to put a price on, though, so I am giving it lots of thought. I really did love both schools, though. Ah! This is just so complex.

Regardless of the fact that the decision is very hard, I know I am in a very fortunate situation right now. Both choices are fantastic, so I can't lose. 🙂 I am lucky.

Also, congrats on absolutely killing it this cycle. You're the bomb. 😀

Thank you. It's always nice to have tough choices. I hope you find something that suits you well. You will clearly be successful wherever you go. If my life has taught me anything, it's that it's less about the school, and more about the person. Best of luck to you and your significant other, and I hope we'll get to meet someday.
We made our own luck this cycle. Sure, lots of things had to go our way to get this point, but I'll be damned before someone says we got lucky.

Don't give up hope. They are known to be generous with awards no matter if you are IS or OOS (well, according to past records that is...)

Has anyone heard any whispers of UCSF scholarships?
