Hello everyone,
I just received the Presidential Scholarship, as I am salutatorian of my highschool class. I was originally so excited to get this, as it would've took a great deal of financial burden off my shoulders. Unfortunately, I just found out that the university did not only update my original merit scholarship of $5000 to $17100 for the new presidential amount, but also revoked my $11800 university grant (Which they did not tell me they would do!). This effectively means they bumped up my financial aid by about $300. Is there any way I can appeal this?? For the past 4 years I have worked myself to the bone for this scholarship, and now I'm finding out that it was all for a measly $300! This reflects so incredibly poorly on the university, and I am more upset than I have ever been.
