<p>At least in 2007, when my son applied, and last year when a friends daughter applied, the 24K/year merit award was sent out with acceptance packet. Of all those students offered the 24K (and it may be more this year as tuition rises each year???), some will get a Singer weekend invite and others will not. Regardless, the 24K/yr stands. </p>
<p>There are two Singer invite weekends. You receive a letter or email about those separately from your acceptance packages.</p>
<p>You will have an interview during the Singer weekend. </p>
<p>Son is a Singer Scholar and Foote Fellow and has gotten a great education at the U. We will miss visiting and being a part of UM when he graduates.</p>
