Hi @gilliangrace , login to your account. Go to Oasis and click Financial aid and then click Award Information to see if you have received any scholarships. My scholarships (Green and Gold Presidential Award) came in this afternoon in Oasis.
Scholarships posted!
I just checked and also now see an award for my son posted too. Very good!
Just a piece of info. I called the financial aid office today, as my son and I noticed that he received some merit $. The woman told us not to accept yet, and wait until about March or so, because more will likely be added. She basically said that this was the first round, and expect more $ to come. That’s awesome!
Wow—that’s interesting. My son qualifies for some automatic merit and it would be nice to see some more $$. Not sure if this is his first choice anymore but it will definitely keep it interesting if more money was offered.
Some of the USF scholarships are automatic but even those do not necessarily post immediately with acceptance.
My son received his offical USF Bulls packet in the mail today with the Freshman scholarship info. USF does a nice job organizing their material and some neat free swag. Their campus visit was also excellent, so USF has impressed me all around.
He also received his UCF acceptance package as well, but no scholarship info accompanied what he shared with me. He left for work so I`ll review their portal with him this weekend. As an aside UCF also did a very nice job with their campus visit.

@Zdawg10101 same. Still waiting on several apps but if USF- same program. Did you get your housing app in? Housing told me they had technical difficulties across the board that night that were fixed by morning…my app is in but tons of snags along the way. Honors housing app doesn’t seem to be open yet.
Is anyone applying to an LLC? Our housing app shows incomplete until we register for orientation (that is locked until March). It seems that we cannot apply to an LLC until we have scheduled an orientation. seems odd because the LLC application link opened today…but it’s like…come apply…but just kidding lol
My child got OOS merit from USF on portal and also received letter about merit $$ package. I just login and check it and there is no scholarship info listed on portal anymore. Could anyone check the portal please?
@Chickenpet All of my data for next fall is gone too. I cannot access my award information. It appears that they added the spring and summer terms for next year as well. My expectation is that they are updating the info. It also says I have not satiated the student requirements. Just give it some time as well. I am waiting for my OOS merit to appear as well but for the time being it looks like they are updating it.
Does anyone know if a new wave of decisions have come out? Any OOS acceptances since the 25th November? TY!
@maggieNE I do not think so. I was accepted on the 15th but my friend who applied around the same time is still waiting.
Looks like more decisions are being released. My daughter’s status on the portal changed to Admitted yesterday (Dec 10), I believe. Her application was “complete” as of Nov 13.
Congrats to your daughter!!
Where does the “complete” information show up? We have spoken to admissions and they said all required items have been received with the exception for the review of the college transcripts for dual enrollment which are showing the yellow exclamation point. High school had to resend transcripts because they said transcripts were not received, then portal showed receipt on resend date then changed to original date sent of 10/09. The waiting is the hardest part - ok people, extra points for song title and double extra points for artist 
@maggieNE By complete application I meant all of the relevant boxes on the Applicant Checklist were finally checked. We also had a problem with high school transcript – although it had been sent in early October, in November the box still was showing the transcript was not received. We emailed admissions to see whether we should have the high school resend the transcript, but when the admissions person checked she realized the transcript had been received but hadn’t been connected/linked to my daughter’s application. The transcript box was then “checked” on November 13th. I read someplace to expect a decision 4-6 weeks after receipt of all of the components, and indeed that was about how long it took to get the decision.
So maybe expect a decision 4 or so weeks after the date on which the admissions office realized they had received the transcript and checked the box? Good luck! I know the waiting can be nerve-wracking.
Thank you for the clarification! Much appreciated. The DE transcript was received 11/06, still yellow ! - we are thinking any day now! He’s already been accepted to his 2nd, 3rd and 4th with USF being #1 so we (the parents) are happy enough. We know how he really really wants USF! I’m an OOS alum too so, I’m trying not to be too nervous or overly hopeful for him.
