Does anyone happen to know if this is somewhat of an “automatic” scholarship if you meet the criteria. We are out of state and daughter meets all the criteria listed, received Presidential scholarship, has the ACT Score and is first in her class. Also applied and was chosen to be a Blount Scholar, but she did not receive the Tutweiler. Know of others with lesser stats that did receive the offer. Curious if this is something that can be negotiated. She really likes UA and is heavily considering it and is her top 2. She actually asked us to put a deposit down for the purpose of dorm selection in the event she chose UA. We were prepared to lose the deposit in the event she chose the other school which is a Top 50 school. Could putting the deposit down have caused her not to get the scholarship?
