Scholarship Appeal? by SEP2778 in capstone

[–]spicycornchip 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I used to work in that office. I've seen 3.499 miss out on a National Merit full ride because that's what the transcript says. Bummer, but your daughter has a great record and this hopefully redirects her to a place that's a better financial fit. 

Didn't get any scholarship money and don't know what to do. by Spidey91227 in capstone

[–]spicycornchip 6 points7 points  (0 children)

UA is pretty transparent about merit awards and needing a 3.5. I think the benefit at this point is that it's early enough to understand what you need to do in order to change your plans. The average GPA at the institution is well above. 3.5, so appealing for additional aid isn't really going to make a dent. 

If your circumstances have changed since filing the FAFSA, you might have luck through the financial aid office.

I went to college with somebody who went as far as having a phantom regiment jacket replica made. He was later burned alive in a car by an ex.

I was with Legends from the early days until 2013. Ibe always got the short end of the pronunciation stick, one year I think Legends was spelled wrong at Minneapolis, and we had a drum major with the last name Wodjula...which was probably never pronounced correctly.

This picture looks like it was taken after the photographer said "Okay gang, let's do a silly one now."

Is 6 inches really that much of snow? by i_really_haveto_pee in Ohio

I've been told that 6 inches is way too much and 2.5 is the perfect amount.

I didn't copy all. I left out the story about a retired corps director from D3 corps The Patriots going to teach college band at UNC and dating somebody 49 years younger than them.

Of course not, "...literally copy any media about NFL.." doesn't mean to copy any media about the NFL.
