Scholarship Deadlines Before Admission Decisions Roll Out?

This doesn’t really have much to do with determining financial aid packages, seeing as I’ve never had the option to see how much aid I will receive for a school UNTIL I have already enrolled in that school after admissions are given out?? Heck, like I mentioned, I got accepted into EOU already and still don’t know what my aid is going to cover for that school’s tuition! I wouldn’t know unless I actually begin the enrollment process. And I am waiting to hear back from SDSU before I make my decision, obviously. So that argument isn’t even valid. All of you defending this are probably parents that aren’t in my position, maybe never even have been in my position. Obviously I’m applying to these scholarships regardless on the off chance that I will make it in, but TELL ME how it’s fair for students who are already putting in an insane amount of work for scholarships and applications etc. to be flat out disqualified EVEN IF they had the best essay in the whole competition. That’s my whole point here. Any other scholarship that isn’t institutional would not leave me to be disqualified if certain circumstances don’t pan out. The results don’t hinge on anything other than the quality of my entry. Get what I mean?
