<p>Hey,
I’m applying to Jacobs EA2 and I was wondering if I could use the Common App to apply for admission while simultaneously using the financial aid application on their website to apply for financial aid. Is there automatic consideration for merit scholarships at Jacobs? Do they require copies of tax forms or anything of the like?</p>
<p>Also, does anyone know what the admission rate at Jacobs is?</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>Yes, you could use Common App for your application and their own online fin aid application simultaneously.
As I remember, yes, there is automatic consideration for merit-based scholarships.
And again yes, they require tax forms which should be sent via regular post.</p>
<p>If the deadline is Feb 1st, should the 2011 taxes be sent if the 2012 taxes aren’t ready yet?</p>
<p>Don’t know about that, try asking admission officers.</p>
<p>This looks like last year’s thread but anyway:</p>
<p>I’m applying this year and they ask either I’d like to be considered for external or internal scholarship on Common App. Which one should I choose? Does it make any difference? I’d like to be considered for merit-aid though, especially China Scholarship.</p>
<p>Frustrated…</p>
