Simon mall scholarship deadline

I was doing some research and found out that WFU has a Nov15 deadline scholarship with full ride. But, I have heard that these scholarships like in any other school are biased towards US National (obviously and i'm not complaining), but, I wanted to know if you know any international student who have received it?
My Stats:
GPA: 4.0/4.0
SAT: 1530
Honors: National Oly Gold, and rank 7 in 2 different olympiads. National Hackathon winner. Merit list
ECs: Leaderships (3-4) over 4 years. 1 research. some community service. MUN stuffs. Jobs etc...

Has anyone received their updated scholarship info after filling out the form? The second deposit deadline is tomorrow and it seems they’re waiting last minute to send it out 🥲

Alumni here. My sister missed the scholarship applications deadline, so I'm thinking if it's better for her to take a gap year and just apply for scholarship when the next school year admission starts.
Might be a dumb question, but I genuinely don't know. Will she still be eligible for incoming freshmen scholarships if she took a gap year after SHS? She's from a different school btw. Hope someone here knows 😭

Where is the application form for the scholarship Studienstiftung des Volkes e.V.?
I need to apply for this scholarship, but I have I don't find any link or information on how to apply. I have written that the deadline is tomorrow. My university has a very fast pace for our final semester, and I am obligated by them to do everything in a rush. It's awful for me. Can you please respond to me quickly?

As the deadline to submit my internet to register is approaching (two days) I’m stuck with 3 options going to UC Berkeley, UCSC or staying local and living with my family. There’s obviously some pros to staying such as having my car, keeping my job and being with my family. But I find myself thinking about what it would be like to have the college experience such as dorms and meeting new people not to mention getting to grow more as an individual. Between ucb and ucsc I think ucsc would be best for me mentally but when I went to visit the area seemed sort of empty but I’d feel guilty choosing ucb for the prestige and simply because it sounds nicer to say than ucsc. In terms of financial aid I haven’t received any awards yet so I don’t know how much I’d pay for any but I got a scholarship for ucsc so I’d pay around 9k and for my local csu I’d be going for free. Part of me wants to stay because I don’t feel like I’m grown enough to leave home and I want to be able to enjoy going to college while having more liberty. I already finished 2 years of CC credit so I can’t do two years and then transfer. If anyone has so insight or a different perspective on my situation that would be great.

So I was thinking of applying there this time and I just saw their admissions has started. Can anyone tell me the deadline to submit the application? I have exams atm so it'll be hard to apply asap, my exams end on 5th June tho.
also, people who attend it, is it any good? what are the biggest issues there? Should I opt for other unis too? Cause Middlesex is the only one affordable for me as I can manage to bag a 30-50% scholarship w my grades. Drop the recsss

I currently have deposits down at 2 different schools - case western and chicago - kent. both schools offered me 120k scholarships over 3 years, but as i’m getting closer to final deadlines, i’ve realized i’m not very excited about either school. My goal is to live and work in the Pacific Northwest, and i’m unsure how realistic transferring from either of these schools to a PNW school would be. I’ve already taken one gap year, and am considering taking another, retaking the LSAT and then reapplying. However, waiting another year means giving up some pretty good scholarships and potentially still not getting into one of my goal schools. Any insight would be super appreciated as i’m feeling pretty torn about what to do.

hi! to those who already enrolled sa slmc, anyone here who knows the deadline for the academic and financial scholarship grants? would we only be allowed to apply once enrolled? tyia!! hehehe also may gc na po ba for the incoming year level 1 students? pa-add po ako if ever :>>

I received Cal Grant A for Berkeley, UCSD, and UCSB. However, I did not receive the Cal Grant for UCLA. I called CSAC, and they said I did not meet the minimum requirements for need for UCLA due to my unmet need (Unmet need = cost of attendance - SAI). The person I talked to with CSAC stated that to receive the Cal Grant, unmet need has to be over the Cal Grant amount plus $1,500, so it must be 14,436 + 1500 = $15,936. For UCLA with a cost of attendance for on campus resident is $42,059, my unmet need is $15,895, so I am $41 under the unmet need and am not eligible for the Cal Grant. For UCSD with a cost of attendance for on campus resident is $42,639, my unmet need is $16,475, meaning I am eligible for the Cal Grant.
I have called UCLA's financial aid office and asked for a professional judgment since the CSAC counselor recommended that I should. They have not gotten back to me yet since the Cal Grant counselor for UCLA was busy. For UCLA, I only received $2,530 in university grants and $3,774 in SHIP grants, but I already have insurance. The cost of attendance for UCLA would be $39,529, while UCSD would be $23,203 (I also received the Regents Scholarship for UCSD).
How would the professional judgment work? If my appeal works, how much aid would I receive? The deadline to commit is in 2 days. While UCLA is my dream school and I really want to attend, it wouldn't be wise of me to choose UCLA over other UC's since I would be paying over $16,000 more a year.

Question's pretty obvious but my ability to pay for my tuition is dependent on whether I receive any single one of the 6 scholarships I've applied for. I don't want to take out student loans when in fact I could potentially pay for it with scholarships and my grants alone if I receive them but I don't know when those are going to be awarded.
Many of them say that the deadline for them is May 17th, so I assume they haven't been awarded yet as you can still apply for them (I don't know why they would award scholarships you can still apply for). Does anyone know the usual timeline for these or if anyone has received these yet?

Deadline: May 31st, 2024
Amount: Varies, but is between $2,000 to $3,000
Description: The Association on American Indian Affairs (AAIA) has been providing Native American student scholarships since 1947 and provides scholarships to undergraduate and graduate Native American students who are citizens/ members of their Tribal Nation – whether or not their Nation is recognized by the federal government.

Hey everyone! I just wanted to come on here and explain a little about my experience with the Goodnight scholarship interview day and application since everything I saw on here when I was searching was either vague or pessimistic.

• I received an invitation to apply in either Feb or March. I had no idea what it was and thought it was spam (it is not! lol)
  
• I applied by late March (I forgot until the last day) and was just painfully honest about my life experiences that I thought were semi-relevant(even though I thought my experiences were boring)
  
• I was told I was a finalist a few weeks after that. I was then given info about the interview day… and was given around a week to confirm my place as a finalist.
  
• interview day was in late April and here’s my main takeaways:
  

-> there is no virtual option, everything is in person -> you cannot bring anyone else -> you must dress business-casual (no jeans, shorts, sweatshirts, or tees!) -> you are expected to mingle a LOT -> the interview itself is 15-20 mins -> it’ll be two people interviewing you in a room -> you MUST be there for the whole interview day (9-3 is what I think it was this past year) -> when you’re not interviewing, you are mingling, eating, and touring -> the scholars generally just want to get a feel for you -> you’ll be asked questions similar to: tell me about how you handled a difference of opinion, what are some leadership positions you’ve held, tell me about a challenge you overcame, etc. ->THEY WILL PROBABLY NOT ASK ABOUT WHAT YOU HAVE ON YOUR APPLICATION ESSAY (emphasized because I thought they would) -> if nothing else, it’s great job interview practice and free food

• I thought my interview was awful, but apparently it wasn’t as bad as I thought… so don’t stress it. They don’t take off points for being nervous or stuttering. They just want you to be honest and passionate!
  
• a couple weeks after interview day you’ll receive an email that denotes you as a recipient, an alternate, or a denied applicant. I cannot attest to what it’s like as an alternate, but I’d assume they offer a decision based on how many people decline their scholarship.
  
• I had two weeks to accept my scholarship after the decision came out (otherwise they give it away). This deadline is BEFORE the nc state student decision deadline… so I had to decide that I wanted the school earlier than others did.
  

If you have any other questions, please feel free to drop them below and I’ll answer if I can. You’ve got this! Go pack!

“The Department recommends that all students, even those who have submitted a paper FAFSA, complete the online FAFSA if possible unless the student filed a paper FAFSA to meet an aid or scholarship deadline prior to the availability of online processing. Filing an online FAFSA will negate the paper filing date.”
Check with your schools and scholarship administrators to see which you should do. Most will want you to file the online version ASAP because we’ll get the data sooner than if we wait for your paper FAFSA to be processed.

Hello everyone!
I've seen many resumes have received great feedback already, and I was hoping that I might be one of the lucky ones. I have already tried following the recommendations the best I can, but I am pretty sure I messed it up after all and would really appreciate some guidance.
My big issue is that I am about to finish my Master's Degree, and along with 12+ years of professional, practical experience, am having a hard time finding jobs/not immediately getting rejected without even going into interview phase.
It might be important to note that I am currently living in Europe and am looking to get jobs in either Switzerland/Zurich or America (Looking at Bay Area) if possible, using my extensive knowledge about Front- and Backend Development, DevOps, Security (thanks to my recent Masters Degree) or gaining experience in the SRE field.
I find it hard to quantify my achievements in a way of "Reduced latency by XX%" as I have not been in roles where I could measure such numbers without making things up, to be honest.
I was hoping to receive some advice on how/what to improve - Of course only if anyone has the time and willpower to help me out!
Resume
I would appreciate your help a lot, thank you very much!

I'm currently choosing between Oregon state university and The Ohio State University for a BS in computer science. I had pretty much settled on Oregon state because I'm an Oregon resident and my tuition is completely paid for by the Oregon opportunity grant and my Pell grant. I also qualify for 9.5k of Government loans and 4k of work study, so I could leave school with a manageable 38k of debt for room and board, or I could get a part time job and graduate with even less.
Ohio originally seemed like a terrible idea because of its insane out of state tuition (44k), but they gave me a 14k "university grant," (formerly Scarlet and Gray Grant), and another 1k SEOG grant.
This would still mean taking out 36k of loans for my first year, 27 of that private... But I'm in a unique position, because I'm 24 and completely financially independent I think I would qualify for in state for years 2-4. I'm unsure if I would get to keep my university and SEOG grant, on top of the ohio opportunity grant I'd get once I was an Ohio resident. But if I did, that would mean Ohio is actually somewhat comparable to Oregon in terms of price. Still more expensive because of the interest on those private loans, but a lot more comparable than I thought.
I'm biased towards moving out of state for school because I want to see more places, and I'll be honest I want the higher ranking (33rd vs 72nd for compsci.) But I don't know a lot about Columbus and do really like Corvallis. I'll also be an hour away from my friends and family in Portland if I choose Oregon. Although Columbus is a bit easier to get to the Netherlands where my girlfriend is studying.
I guess my main question is: is there any world where Ohio is a good idea? Is it too risky? Too much hassle dealing with all these variables? How much more opportunity will I actually have at a t30 massive school like Ohio vs Oregon state?
I'm still waiting on scholarships for both these schools, so that may change things. Although the deadlines are coming up. I also don't really know who to ask about my grants, and If I'd get to keep them or not if I qualified for in state, would the financial aid department be able to help?
Misc info about me that may be helpful:

• Extreme educational neglect as a child (did not know how to read at 12, think Christian homeschoolers)
• Taught myself k-12 mathematics in a year, went from not knowing my times tables to trig while working full-time.
• Very Ambitious and disciplined because of my background, aiming for FAANG and other high level internships.
• May opt for an EE degree instead if I enjoy the classes more.

Hii does anybody know if the archer achiever scholarship covers the retention fee for dropping a subject beyond the full refund deadline? Or do I have to pay this myself?
There’s already a 1k late fee in addition to the fee so it might pile up while I’m saving for it 😭
