FA Awards with Packets...

<p>Tuition at Hopkins has increased for next year. Current students were just notified yesterday that “the trustees this month approved undergraduate tuition for the 2006-2007 academic year of $33,900. That represents an increase of $2,280, or 7.2 percent, from the current $31,620.” (quoting from an email from President Brody)</p>

<p>As for scholarships, as far as I know (and I may be wrong), about 60-ish Hodson Trust Scholars and 15 Westgate scholarship finalists are notified of their status when RD admissions decisions are sent out. (Westgate is the engineering scholarship.) Hopkins holds a little reception on campus for Hodson Scholars right before one of the open houses and they also pays for Westgate finalists to visit campus and interview to decide who will receive the 2 Westgate scholarships (all Westgate finalists are guaranteed to receive the Hodson scholarship if they aren’t chosen for the Westgate)</p>
