Hi CarolynB.

I just wanted to thank you for helping out so much on the HWS forums - you are always so helpful and informative, and as a prospective student, I really appreciate your insight.

I had a few questions regarding the merit scholarships - firstly, would you be willing to chance me? I’m a junior now, and really enjoyed my visit to the campus. I’m fairly confident that I could easily see myself there, but money is tight and HWS is far, and I’m not fully comfortable with ED.

Also, when are the scholarships distributed? Are some only considered with ED students, or are RD applicants also within consideration?

And lastly, pertaining still to merit scholarships, what exactly are they awarded for? The pamphlets and handouts are very unspecific, just listing the numbers. I’m talking specifically about Trustee, Hersh, Wood, Faculty, and Presidential scholarships.

Thank you for all of your help! I really appreciate all of your input and information.
