When these threads mention "I got 25K from Irvine" with 162/3.8, do they mean 25K per year? Or...
Thanks!

Re: Question about scholarships posts here
It depends on the poster, but it's generally the 3 year sum. Which is the best way to do it if you want helpful advice.yunjh1066 wrote:When these threads mention "I got 25K from Irvine" with 162/3.8, do they mean 25K per year? Or...

Not sure if that's correct. My understanding is that the 25K would be per year.

Re: Question about scholarships posts here
Another question: when schools say they offer in-state tuition to out-of-staters does that savings show up as part of the offer? For example, when someone says they were offered $70k with in-state tuition, does that mean the tuition decrease was factored into the $70k or was offered in addition to it?

Re: Question about scholarships posts here
$70k with in-state tuition would likely mean on top of/in addition to. But again, it's going to depend on the poster/reporter. Also, some people like to inflate their numbers. Why? Self-importance, who knows. I've seen people report that they get money with in-state tuition, to indicate that they are in-state applicants and received that much money. Sometimes it's to help other people calculate their debt/check their figures.Scalvert wrote:Another question: when schools say they offer in-state tuition to out-of-staters does that savings show up as part of the offer?

Thanks. I suppose it's made clear in the acceptance/offer packet. I got my first acceptance yesterday and looked at LSN at what other people had gotten. I know this school offers in-state tuition as well, and was trying to figure out what I was likely to be looking at. (I'll know in a couple of days for sure, but in the meantime, why not speculate wildly?)
