[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I lost my merit aid freshman year. First semester I was above required GPA. Second semester I was a (very) little below. If they had averaged the two I would have been fine, but they didn't. At that school, National Merit finalists would have been put on probation, but I wasn't a finalist. Anybody can have a bad semester. I would strongly advise people to understand all the terms of merit aid packages.[/quote] +1 Same thing happened to my straight A brother. He did badly in some pre-med electives (physics, organic chem which have low curves) and lost his funding. My parents were livid, because he had gone to this much lower tier school because it was cheaper, and he had gotten into far better schools.[/quote]
