Are you going dank08? We're trying to figure out a good time to visit. They gave more financial aid than Providence College so we're taking an look. I have been hearing a lot of great comments about HWS lately

The schools are essentially one school. The only difference is sports teams (they use their individual names) and some customs and traditions. Otherwise, everything and everyone is combined.

I am still not sure, I need to visit HWS. They gave me 20k in grants alone, plus a work study and loans. Providence gave me 1000 plus some loans. So unless I can convince PC to give me more money I'm not going there.

Well, Hobart just took away a lot of the money they were giving me. I have NO idea what I'm going to do now. I am screwed.

Well, I received a large outside scholarship, and they take whatever you get from the outside from your grants and work study/loans.

I could afford to go there with the scholarship and the grants they were giving me, but not now. Does anyone know why it costs 50k to go there?

I wonder why HWS is so reluctant to reply to emails! And they haven't even sent me a decision yet! They should really respond to emails.
