ADDITIONAL INFO & UPDATES

I have accepted an offer of admission from FLORIDA STATE with a FULL scholarship. Even though I had offers from "better" ranked schools, I felt like this was the place God wanted me to be.

Acceptance Info for other schools:

The dates of my "Sent" and "Decision" accurately reflect the dates of completing my applications and receiving my decisions.

MIAMI:
Yes, it took one day to get my decision. Call from Dean with acceptance and $40,000/year Dean's Merit Scholarship. Stip: 2.5 GPA

BAYLOR:
Status checker says you can call and ask for your decision. I did, and was told of $51,000/year scholarship during that phone call. Stip: 2.5 GPA.

WAKE: 
$27,500 scholarship/year listed on status checker the day after acceptance. 
Attempted negotiation on 3/12 and was turned down.

WILLIAM & MARY: 
Received my acceptance via email. 
One week later, a packet came in the email. I was not offered a scholarship initially. 
Dean told me I was being reconsidered for scholarship money, but after submitting required documentation, was told they currently "had no extra funds."

SOUTH CAROLINA:
Accepted via status checker. 
Packet came in the mail about a week later, with no scholarship info. 
Received an email approx 2 weeks later with scholarship info that was very underwhelming. 
Dean did state that more money was likely to become available as the cycle continued.

SMU:
Accepted via status checker, and received a call the next day. 
$24,000 Dean's Scholarship listed on status checker. 
Packet came in the mail about a week later.

OHIO STATE:
Accepted via email. 
There was no packet, but a few letters that came in the mail. 
Received an email about a week later with scholarship info. 
Attempted scholarship negotiation on 3/15 but, again, was told no.

CINCINNATI:
Accepted via email - status checker said decision made, I believe. 
Scholarship info came in the packet about a week later.

WISCONSIN:
Accepted via status checker. 
Received scholarship email later that day. Scholarship included an in-state waiver and an additional amount per year. They ask info be kept confidential.

NOTRE DAME:
Status checker says "Decision Rendered." If you see seat deposits within a day or two, then you're in. If not, I assume they mail you a waitlist or rejection letter. 
Received packet in the mail a few days later.

UNC:
Accepted via email. 
Was not awarded a scholarship. 
Asked to be reconsidered for scholarship funds on 3/15 and, of course, was told no.
