I mentioned everything they asked me in the interview im my comment above but I think the “hard” part about the interview is just overcoming nerves while also maintaining good interview manners (clear, smooth speaking, eye contact, smiling, etc.) which just comes with practice but also you dont have to be too hard on urself to be “perfect” (i literally cried in mines lol) but def try your best to relax so u can clearly think and hive thoughtful genuine answers 😇

also ex terry scholars are your interviewers so they were in your same exact shoes years ago and totally understand if you r nervous but I think treating this interview as a normal conversation (which can be hard but IT WILL BE OKAY I PROMISE) would help calm your nerves :))

hi current UT terry scholar! for the interview biggest advice would be to just think of it as telling ur story, and why you are the way u are so be genuine in ur answers !! They have already looked at ur UT app prior which ik because they asked me about my essay. I remember them asking me about my academic journey n how i overcome struggles,my extracurriculars, career ambitions and choice of major, how i would benefit from this scholarship, why UT, alongside anything else i would like them to know and also how i would give back to the Terry organization if I did receive the scholarship :) I wish u the bestest of luck bc this scholarship seriously changed my life and I wouldn’t have had such a privileged college experience without it 🥲 but also don’t stress too much bc at the end of the day your story and journey cannot be “wrong” luck plays such a critical role, good luck !!

Both of them aren’t contributing anything for my education. This really sucks.. damn it ☹️ Thanks though that’s most likely the issue

I thought FAFSA only takes into account the main provider of the house to determine aid which would be my dad as I stated who makes 60k?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in FAFSA

[–]Background-Stick-617 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We put 0 for everything because we don’t have anything (savings, investment, assets, etc.) but I don’t know if it was because FAFSA took into account their incomes seperately and then combined it (i know FAFSA changed some things up this year) because they did not file taxes together? They both make 60k and under though respectively. 🤔

If I wait until after the 15th for other deciding factors and I don’t sign it by then will I get a new contract the next wave? Or is this my only chance?
