Hello everyone!
I am a senior student from Turkey, I have applied to many universities in early round among which is Northeastern University.

Thanks to my luck somehow I was accepted into Northeastern University and was given the chance to study in the Honours program. Sadly I need a boost from merit based scholarships to be able to study in NEU but I am yet to receive it.
In their internet website it is said that they accept the 10 percent to their honours program and give merit based scholarships to the best 25 percent.

Does this mean I am overlooked and should be eligible for merit based aid? Or this means that there are other factors in play and that is the way it was supposed to be.

Thank you for all the responses in advance. Here is my information just to give you a clearer image.

SAT
1440/1600
2040/2400

690 Reading
780 Maths
570 Writing

SAT II:
800 Physics
790 Maths I

85 percent average GPA which means in the first 11th quartile of my whole graduating class.

Both an IB and Turkish National Diploma scholar, which means I will graduate with 2 diplomas.

IB predicted 41

Major Extra Curricular:
Organized and European Youth Parliament conference, was the Vice President and head organizer.

Is a swimmer.

Thank you once again for your attention and help.
I wish you all and your loved ones a lovely week.
