<p>I sent an email to FSU Admissions asking about their NMF scholarship - on the website, it does not specify an award, but says to contact them for more information. I received the following email in response:</p>

<p>Is this too good to be true?? Does anyone have experience with this?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>The NM policy at FSU has varied over time and if this is the answer you received from Admissions I’d take it to the bank. They are very approachable, I’d ask for details if you have questions.</p>
<p>This is true. When I went to preview I talked to finaid about it. They told me to fax over my finalist letter and about 3-4 weeks later I got a letter saying that I got the $6000 scholarship. </p>
<p>Sorry to hijack your thread but:
I thought that if FSU gives you an initial scholarship and then gives you a better one later on it replaced the previous one. But on my financial aid website thing it states that I have the national merit scholarship and the university freshman scholarship. Is THIS too good to be true?</p>
<p>Wow! That would be fantastic if that is true. Hope it is true for you!</p>
<p>If you have the National Merit scholarship AND the University Scholarship you are in an outstanding position. Congratulations!</p>
<p>The NM = $6,000 per year</p>
<p>The University Scholarship = $9,600 per year.</p>
<p>Nice!</p>
<p>(not to mention Florida Bright Futures and Florida PrePaid programs, which also would apply)</p>
<p>Correction – P2N meant University Scholarship is $2400 per year. $9600 over 4 years. You will have more than enough for tuition, room, board, books, supplies and activities too.</p>
<p>Congrats on the scholarships! That is AWESOME!</p>
<p>Correct, cybermom - I was referring to the total award. </p>
<p>Thanks for catching my error. :)</p>
