On her normal application page. There is an update to your account. DD just checked in and she got an email that said she had an update.
My son just got an e-mail at 1:22 EST telling him that an important update has been made to his Green Wave Portal. My son’s update in the portal states: “Due the strength of your Paul Tulane Award, we would like to increase your merit scholarship to a total of $31,000 (an 6K increase). We received nearly 3,000 applications for the Paul Tulane Award, and though you have not been selected to receive the award, we are delighted to offer this increase in scholarship to a select group of finalists”.
So if my merit has not increased and I have not seen any updates in my portal is that a good sign?
I’m so honored to be a recipient of the DHS award!! About an hour ago all of my DHS checklist disappeared, so I assumed I did not get the award. I went to check my original acceptance letter to see if maybe my merit increased and the acceptance letter for the DHS was posted! I’m so very excited! I can go to college now!
good luck! Let us know
This is the same for me too. I still don’t have any update. @animallover345
Now DHS info disappeared but no updates in acceptance letter. Do they post a letter if you didn’t receive an award?
Same here. DD’s PT info has disappeared, but no updates anywhere. Wah!
@maril555 SAME
Got another letter - no DHS and no merit increase.
I got the DHS! I’m so incredibly excited!
@Arcadia101 Congratulations! Can you tell us how you found out? Email, portal or UPS?
I got Paul Tulane! They sent me an email that my status updated at 2 PM (EST) and the letter was in my Early Action portal. TULANE 2024!!!
No PTA or increase to my 15k in merit.
Tulane still looking good, but def less affordable than my other options.
@gratefulmama Thank you, and I found out through email!
Did anyone get a full “No” email for PTA or DHS today?
Not an email, but my daughter’s portal was updated with a no letter for both of the scholarships.
Daughter got letter in portal first for PT - that she didn’t get it but her merit is increased. Then second letter saying she didn’t get DHS.
My daughter got notified via her portal today that she got the DHS.
D did not get PT or DHS, no additional merit. I thought her PT essays were really well written. I know the awards are competitive and trust that those that got them, deserved them most. I’m just a bit surprised that she didn’t at least get the little extra bump in merit that is often given when you apply. Tulane was her top choice but the additional cost will be hard to justify if she gets into one of our CA state schools.
