Anyone else waiting on the Toll Scholarship? They say they're releasing decisions this week and I'm about to explode. It would be a game changer...

Same here! Anyone want to call to find out when we can expect a decision?

I didn't ask specifically about Toll but called today and they said that a lot of their early offers have deadlines Friday so they will have new money to allocate after that, and will be sending out new offers next week

I bit the bullet and called. She just asked if I had any deadlines at other schools. I said Tuesday (true) and she said she would pass that information on to the scholarship committee. Not exactly what I wanted to happen! But it means maybe they are going to do it rolling, without a specific deadline.

Got an email back today after sending in my negotiation yesterday. Got a response that they do not match but would take the offers into consideration.

sorry to hear that :/ be proud of yourself for making it so far in the process though, you must be an excellent candidate! i'd be surprised if they didn't throw a ton of money your way regardless if penn is still where you want to end up.

For some reason I always thought Penn only had 2 date changes before a decision

Thanks for the pep talk. I'll probably end up there anyway which makes not getting it sadder.

If I still haven't received a scholarship offer should I not be expecting one? Admitted in 3/20.

When I asked Fin. Aid at the ASW, they said you would be notified either way. So until they send you something saying that you aren't getting one, I think there is still hope.

Mind sharing your admit date?
