Did you somehow verify that with the registrar? I was told median is around a 3.15, but never got it confirmed.

Does anyone know if Villanova negotiates scholarships? I have a 3.46 and a 167 and got 22K per year. Nova is my first choice but I am curious as to whether I could get more $$$$?

Banning Sno-pocolypse this weekend, will be at the open house. However, not looking likely, only $20 k a year so Nova doesn't make financial sense...

I emailed admissions, they asked for a list of my other offers, and then they bumped up my scholarship the next day. :-)

Shouldn't you be asleep?

Free booze was nice. The alumni were incredibly nice and genuinely interested in our futures at Villanova.
