<p>D received word of $15,000/year Founder’s Scholarship from Denison. She didn’t try for any of the special scholarships (more focused on a couple other schools by that time) — congratulations on the Paschal Carter — that is terrific!!</p>
<p>Congrats to your D kelsmom! I see she got accepted to Rhodes too, so congrats again! Anxious here to hear from Rhodes about merit money. Letter says 2 weeks–ughhh.</p>
<p>Guys anyone know of resources to fund a Four year marathon to a PharmD education? Appreciate any help from those lucky parents who may have had bright stars with similar aspirations or of possibly graduate work that they now are enrolled in and funding via Grants and Scholarships.</p>
<p>Thank you and look forward to your help

<p>S received a $15,000/year Founders Scholarship at Denison today :)</p>
<p>D received a $15K Founders Scholarship from Denison as well. Congrats to all Denison students (must be one of the last schools to send notices!), esp sjstxmom’s D! My D also received $9K/yr from Earlham and from Lawrence, in addition to previous posting. And she has received a full-ride Chancellor’s award at Southern Illinois University-Edwardsville that even includes books.</p>
<p>My son got the Heritage Scholarship for Auburn- about 16K per year; the Charter Scholarship for UGa- about 16K per year; and Florida Bright Futures for University of Florida which covers 100% of tuition plus $300 for books per semester. Last year my other son got the Future Leaders Scholarship for Auburn which was about the same (16K), the Ga Tech Presidential Scholarship which is either full ride, 15K, or 5K per year (he only got the 5K!). I wish he would have applied for more, we didn’t realize that merit scholarships were attainable back then.</p>
<p>Mathson got a Presidential Scholarship award to WPI. $15,000 a year and not too many strings attached.</p>
<p>D received Braddock (tuition/room&board/research money)at PSU/Schreyer Honors. PSU is not known for its academic scholarships, so we were thrilled. D has great stats, but we have been reading about “early writes” on so many pages and nothing like that was coming to our house. D will be hearing from some other places on Thursday - but no matter what - she will know her hard work literally paid off.</p>
<p>D named a Marquis Scholar at Lafayette:$16,000/year/four years/merit award.</p>
<p>Dana’s Dad</p>
<p>on top of the 8K Trustee’s Scholarship at Puget Sound, they’re also giving me a 13k/yr grant! I am pretty darn shocked right now. Wow.</p>
<p>D received the Presidential Scholarship at Union College, NY - 5K. Not a big dent, but every bit helps!</p>
<p>S received word today of a Clarkson Scholarship for $14,720. This will make the decision a <em>lot</em> harder…</p>
<p>D was just notified that she received a President’s Scholarship at Muhlenberg College - $12,500/year! It only requires a 3.0 GPA, which seems reasonable.</p>
<p>Just found out that I’ve recieved a Presidential Scholarship to Franklin & Marshall College of $12,000/year!

<p>S received Presidential Scholarship at Union, $10k/year. No minimum GPA to keep it!</p>

Top 10% of public high school
Weighted GPA 3.95, Unweighted 3.6
EC’s: Eagle Scout, Nat’l Honor Society</p>
<p>Danalynne, congrats on the Marquis at Lafayette! That’s a big deal! DS was also admitted there, but with no money 
Hubby and I are alumni, so this will be a tough decision.</p>
<p>DS notified of 8k per year merit scholarship at Whitman, plus invitation for scholarship interview weekend to increase the $$. He’s feeling good as he really likes this school, but more $$ will be needed.</p>
<p>Thank you lafalum.</p>
