Hey everyone…I guess I might as well clear up this confusion. Upon my visit to GWU a few weeks ago, I met with an assistant Dean of Admissions and inquired about my scholarship. After looking up my files, she told me that it was indeed merit-based, not need-based at all. She told me that the B.O.T. scholarship was sometimes need-based and sometimes merit, but is often combined for most eligible candidates. I guess it all depends on the circumstance. I was also told that it is significantly leess common than the presidential scholarship, which is typically valued at $10k. Huh…
