[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Seriously, my kids offer letter states - University Grant = $15,000 - Dean's Scholarship = $15,000 So if it says 'scholarship', is it merit aid? Is the grant part need based, and scholarship part merit aid? Scholarships can be needed? or does it specifically state 'You got Merit Scholarship' What's the basis of people's claim? [/quote] Schools specifically classify certain aid as “merit” aid. They say it straight up. It’s kind of odd that you don’t know this? If the scholarships you received were based on grades and scores, that is called merit aid. If the scholarships you received are based on need, even if also based on merit, those would not be considered what most people consider merit aid. [/quote]
