[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1. The only full academic scholarship at UVA is the Jefferson.

2. All of the other full scholarships take need into account.

3. Foreign citizens aren't eligible for government money. If an international student get a scholarship, it's most likely through Jefferson or they hold US citizenship.

Since you can't name the scholarship, I feel you are misleading yourself on the nature of the funding. You'd think that someone whose kid was part of something so big would remember what it was called. They ALL have names.[/quote]

I never said I don't remember the name. And I don't know what is the nature of the funding, I just know it is not a financial aid. Financial aid decision was maid at the time of the admission and they told us we are not eligible for any financial aid. These scholarship came out much later.

Here is the top line of the email from UVA:

"Congratulations on your offer of admission to the University of Virginia! You have been selected as one of this year’s recipients of the University Achievement Award (UAA) Scholarship. "

And here is the text from the actual letter that was attached:

"Congratulations once again on your offer of admission to the University of Virginia. You have been
selected as one of this year’s recipients of the University Achievement Award (UAA) Scholarship. This
scholarship covers the cost of tuition and fees ".

The above would not cover the cost of living.

Why are you not believing? Why would I make this up? My kid chose not to go to UVA, so we are not using that scholarship anyway. [/quote]
