When does the Office of Student Financial Services make scholarship decisions/offers?
Scholarship decisions and offers are made after admission offers are sent to students, beginning February 1 and continuing through the beginning of the Fall semester. Scholarship funds are extremely limited and highly competitive. Every scholarship committee reviews many applications each year. Unfortunately, many qualified students do not receive awards. Only scholarship award recipients will receive official notification from the committees. The scholarship committees in the Office of Student Financial Services generally make their final decisions and will begin notifying award recipients in early April. Though OSFS awards scholarships throughout the calendar year, the office awards the bulk of its scholarships for the upcoming year by the beginning of June.
