Okay, I just looked up the Posse Scholars Program. I agree … that would not be on the award letter at this point. The financial aid office has to be notified of this scholarship, and I am sure that it doesn’t happen until you have actually committed to a school.

Looks like Posse pays tuition. You will have to come up with room & board. Most likely, you will end up with Posse for tuition & you will be offered unsubsidized Stafford=$5500. However, it is possible that a school may have other merit scholarships they offer to Posse Scholars to help offset the cost of room & board … but I don’t know that; it’s just a guess.

Congratulations, by the way! :)
