My S did not apply specifically to the Honors program as has been talked about, but did receive the Presidential Academic Scholarship of $15K per year. His credentials are quite impressive and has received similar scholarships from other Universities. The letter also stated that this would be taken into account when putting together the total FA package. Hopefully, this means that we will have less loans instead of less grants. I still expect to pay the full EFC. I have been told that GW is very good with FA packages, so we are hoping for additional aid to make this decision a bit easier.
