Does anyone know when Kellogg starts disclosing scholarship information? Ruthie, MAKE SURE you fill out the Scholarship Application. I got a very nice scholly package from Kellogg. The Scholarship app for Kellogg is hard to find so Facebook me if you need me to send you the app.

Seriously though, as one of my recommenders said, I might be going to grad school loan-free, but I've got a truckload of pay-it-forward debt. Gotta own it and follow through now! Pay-it-Forward Debt.. Love that notion.... As an aside, Congrats Method!!

Yep, very much so. I still have 3 hours till I get home, but thankfully have a crapload of work to busy myself with in the meantime.

Is there anything in the letter that says which schools you got into? Darden's d-day isn't until Tuesday, and I'd like to know whether the letter gives any clue.

Posted from my mobile device Yah man, even with a Consortium Fellowship we still have to pay the school's deposit by the school's dealine to lock up our seat in the class. They will refund it to us in August once we start. I already paid the first half of mine last Friday and it was painful. "Hello paycheck; good-bye paycheck."

Posted from my mobile device Yes, the deposit shows that you're committed to the school. Not sure how it works for other schools but the deposit I submitted is just added to my bursar package and I can use it for fees/books/healthcare, etc. If it isn't used by the end of the semester/year, Johnson will reimburse me.
