Scholarship Timeline?

[ninjafrog]

I’ve recently been admitted to SVA, Pratt, and CalArts (MFA Graphic Design), but I haven’t received any information regarding financial aid or merit-based scholarships yet.

As an international student, merit-based funding is very important for me, so I’m wondering: Do schools usually send scholarship information together with the acceptance letter, or does it come separately later? Is it normal not to hear anything yet at this stage?

When do financial aid notifications typically come out?

I’ve reached out to the department at SVA but haven’t received a response yet.
If anyone has experience with this, especially as an international student, I would really appreciate your insight.
