I heard that they are mailing letters throughout the month of march. One of my friends got his letter last week and another is still waiting.

It was a small, partial amount for the scholarship (less than 50%). But it was a nice surprise nevertheless.

I'm in! It's funny actually, I have yet to receive an acceptance letter or email but when I logged into my Bennington financial aid account, I saw that they were offering me a huge grant ($14,000 per semester), obviously in accordance with my acceptance. So excited!!

Ah I feel so behind the curve. Waiting on transfer admission status feels twice as torturous

I got my letter yesterday. It was so nice because there was a personal note about my essay attached
However, with only the Brockway scholarship I can't afford it

I got my acceptance letter today! No financial aid information was included though, so I'm a little concerned about whether or not I will be able to afford it.

In as well, but no financial aid information yet...I was also accepted with a major scholarship at Sarah Lawrence, which was my first choice anyhow, so its no big deal.

Any idea on how are the internationals notified of the decision (e-mail, regular mail, FedEx)?
