Please look at one of my S financial package

<p>Total Expense : 36,440</p>

<p>Federal Parent Loan: 13,815.
Federal Unsub Staff Loan: 2,625.
Scholastic Scholarship: 20,000.</p>

<p>But it said at the end <em>Your awards are based on your designation as an On-Compus Resident.</em>
What does it means? If my son commute instead they will deduct his loan that is o.k. but can they reduce the amount of my son’s scholarship if he maintain the required GPA?</p>

<p>If the cost of attendance includes room and board, the package will be reduced if the student decides to commute. I think the scholastic scholarship, would be attached to tuition, so that would most likely stay the same. You need to read the conditions of maintaining the scholarship. </p>

<p>First of all is the scholarship for all 4 years? </p>

<p>Is it automatically renewable or does he have to apply for it every year?</p>

<p>Will it be for the same $20,000 a year in subsequent years?</p>

<p>If maintaining the scholarship is conditional on keeping a certain GPA if son does not keep it then the money is most likely gone. </p>

<p>Find out if the gpa is a phase in (they work their way up to it) or if he must maintain it as of the end of fall term.</p>

<p>Also, find out if he does not meet the GAP first term, is there a probationary period (does he have until the end of the spring semester to bring up his gpa to the required gpa).</p>

<p>If he should loose the scholarship, would it be reinstated if he makes the GPA threshold.</p>

<p>hope this helps</p>

<p>Thanks, I will clarify with the financial office!</p>
