On their financial aid site - they mentioned that the merit scholarship decisions are declared after admission decisions -

"Merit Scholarships

Every admitted applicant will be considered by an Admission Scholarship Committee for a merit scholarship, and if selected to be a recipient, will receive notification of their award approximately one week after their admission."

I am completely OK with this. I am pretty sure I don't remember all of Calculus after 8-9 years! :D Plus, what else am I going to do now? No applications, no interviews, no essays.

Hahaha! I am OK with this too, but I could definitely use a big fat vacation in addition before school next June.
Feels so surreal, not much to worry about now besides work

May be that's why award amount is not included in admit letter today. I think EA folks are at disadvantage for moolah because its a binding commitment and we are the one saying I love you Duke. So they don't have to lure us with any more incentives. I really want to be proved wrong (anything less than $20,000 doesn't count though).

I have the best Manager in this respect. He was sat right beside me when i got the call, after I stopped jumping around, he looked at me and said, ok, let's plan when all you are taking vacations, because you totally deserve to enjoy before you go. I think I almost cried tears of gratitude. :D

Greetings all.

My name is Pedro. I am a 28 y/o hispanic male with five years experience in military special operations. I received my acceptance letter and accompanying scholarship letter an hour ago. I'm very excited to get to know each of you, my future classmates!
