<p>2 questions:</p>

<ol>
<li><p>Does PSU give out any merit aid, and if so, how much do people usually receive? Are there a lot of scholarships offered, or should I just assume that I’ll be paying the full price?</p></li>
<li><p>When does SHC notify applicants of their admissions decisions? I applied in November.</p></li>
