FreeRadical Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 This is a section from my acceptance letter: "The deadline for deciding if you will attend the school is April 15. However, I will need to know by noon on March 4 whether or not you plan to accept the tuition-credit scholarship offer." Obviously I'm not going to reject the funding and still attend the school. Also, a phone call later clarified that accepting the funding DOES imply that I'm accepting admission. So basically, the April 15th deadline means nothing and I have to decide by March 4th. This is convenient for them but inconvenient for everybody else, including the admissions committees from all of my other schools whom I'll be contacting soon. What's the deal? Is this common?
geographyrocks Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 From what I've seen, it's very common with scholarships. I have no idea why.
Munashi Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 FreeRadical - Any updates? How did you handle the situation/what was the final outcome? I'm curious how things have turned out for you!
