<p>I’m Indian and plan on attending. Hi!</p>
<p>We’re not in the same college though. I’m in the College of Media.</p>
<p>Even I’m Indian and will most probably be attending. Also, I’m in Electrical Engineering as well :)</p>
<p>Anyone know if OOS scholarships have been sent out???</p>
<p>I just received an email saying that I was accepted into the James Scholar Honors Program. However, I haven’t heard anything about OOS scholarships yet.</p>
<p>S2 got the same email. Don’t expect much regarding scholarships for OOS even with 1% stats. Illinois is broke!</p>
<p>I received a letter in the mail for an OOS Aspire scholarship based on high academic achievement and i don’t have a high GPA so…i don’t know why i got it…and it’s a lot of money (well, at least to me). I’m super happy though, and this moves UIUC up my list, as I originally did not want to go to an OOS because it is so expensive.</p>
<p>@bonee26 While the State of Illinois is having its share of financial difficulties during this recession, the University of Illinois has a 2.8 billion dollar endowment through which it funds scholarships.</p>
<p>@Balthezar Thank You for the clarification. I believe this is the same fund that supplies grants. We will see shortly how dedicated UIUC is to truly having the most qualified class.</p>
<p>I stand corrected S2 received email indicating a university award of 12k per year today, oos, @balthezar your information was precise.</p>
<p>D got 14k per yr. oos, 2200 sat, but did not her first choice major of BME.</p>
<p>Accepted as a James Scholar, but absolutely $0 in scholarship. Very generous $44,000 in loans though (I do say that a bit sarcastically). Looks like I’ll be sticking with Wisconsin!
Congratulations everyone!</p>
<p>@deerstalkers: Yeah, same here…</p>
<p>my son got into engineering, but most likely won’t attend because of OOS and no scholarship. Will leave a space for other kids</p>
