Apologies in advance if this has already been addressed but does anyone know when they let you know about scholarship info? It wasn't addressed in my admit e-mail at all. Does this mean I am not being considered for a scholarship?

Did it say anything at all in your initial email about scholarships?

Nope, nothing at all in the initial email. I was beginning to think I wasn't going to get $$$ until I was notified days later.

Yeah, my current status date is 11/18/11. Still in review. I think they might have forgotten to make a decision on mine.
I'm in review as of 11/22/11 so this is not an isolated incident. I guess brooklyn is just taking its sweet time.
Hmm ... Strange. I applied mid january and was accepted about two weeks later. No mention of scholarships yet though. Anyone gotten any schools news yet?

Oops now I see all the posts about scholarships. I checked my BLS connect and no scholarships are there, so I don't know if that means I didn't get anything or if it's just not posted yet.

Status checker says packet was mailed on the 10th, so I'm hoping it comes soon. I'm wondering when I will receive the BLS Connect login info via email.

My status has updated from "In Review" to "In Review" twice in as many days. I don't really know what to make of this.

In Review: 11/18, 1/26, 1/30, 1/31, 2/1, 2/3, 2/7, 2/8, 2/15

I like to think that my materials are warm and comforting, like a book loved since childhood, and that is why they can't bear to issue a decision, choosing instead to read my app over and over for the solace it provides in these tumultuous times.

This. 162/3.5/URM here. Almost ALL of my schools are stuck between 1/6-1/12. I feel like I'm never going to hear from schools.

In via status checker! I was amazed, considering I submitted the application on 2/3 and it didn't go complete until 2 days ago because I had to send them my high school info. That's some quick work.

Just got my BLS Connect info and logged in to find a pretty generous scholarship, which is very exciting. I've heard that BLS's renewal stips are pretty tough, but when I looked on their website, it seemed to say that scholarship recipients must be in the top 80% at the end of each year. That actually seems much more lenient than many schools that require top 40%, top half, etc. Am I missing something?

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
