Does scholarship info come with the acceptance letter?

I got my acceptance letter exactly a week ago, and I still haven't heard about any scholarship information. I got a 2360 SAT score, and I'm in the top 5% of my class, so I'd expect to get at least something?

I had an interview, but it wasn't on-campus. Is it possible that this didn't count, and disqualified me from receiving a scholarship?

No, I got my scholarship letter around 2 weeks after being admitted. I had an off campus interview too, and still got a scholarship (though not as much as I hoped) Sit tight, you'll get something eventually.

My daughter's scholarship letter DID come with her acceptance letter 2 years ago. Her interview was not on campus either.

My S didn't have an interview at all, and today he got a scholarship letter (Youth Orchestra Scholarship). It's wonderful and highly appreciated, but since we still haven't gotten the FA package we still don't know the whole picture.

I got the Dean's Scholarship ($8,000 per year) about two weeks after my acceptance

My D. got her acceptance letter last week, a scholarship letter today, and I called Fin Aid, who said that they are still working on the package, the schloarship letter came from Admissions not Fin Aid, and it was a very nice letter....now, keeping fingers crossed for fin aid to come thru....

Just for a point of information for those of you who got merit scholarships - from what they told me last year, the only requirement for retaining those scholarships is "satisfactory academic progress" (2.0), which is the same thing as required to stay off academic probation.

Acceptance letter arrived on March 28th. Any chance of a scholarship letter arriving two weeks after that?

I got my scholarship letter 10 days after i got accepted for class of 2012, so if you still havn't gotten your financial aid letter, my scholarship letter was attached and the money was included in the financial aid letter
