could one apply for a scholarship...?

<p>after being admitted and given a certain fin aid package? how will it influence the pachage you receive from your univ/college? what if you apply for a scholarship, are give the fin aid considering it, but then do not receive that scholarship? do you still have the chance to modify you fin aid?</p>

<p>You certainly can apply for scholarships after receiving your fin aid package. It will not affect your package if you do NOT receive it, because you do not need to report scholarships you are applying for, only those you actually receive.</p>

<p>If you do receive outside scholarships, it may affect your fin aid package, particularly if the college meets need. Different colleges do it differently. Most of them will first deduct loans and work study, then will reduce need-based grants. (Merit aid should not be affected.) You need to check with individual colleges to see how they do it.</p>

<p>ok. thanks. :)</p>
