求助，关于奖学金！

佳韵

University of Connecticut 给了我admission, 但是没有奖学金，director说五一之后没有take 学校offer的人的奖学金会重新分配，问问大侠们，我能拿到奖学金的机会有多大啊，是不是据掉offer的人会很少的。

还有，学校要求五一之前交500美金的depoit，怎么pay比较快啊，还剩几天了，还说admission letter要寄回学校，是用快递还是航空啊。

谢谢大侠们的帮助！！

If you have friends in the U.S. , asking them to pay in their saving accounts online would be the most efficient way.

Many thanks! any other comments regarding the financial aid and the deposit?

find out the yield ratio of the MBA program at your school. the normal yield ratio is about 50% for the non-top tier schools, and it is very likely some scholarship funds will be available because those who do not take up the offers at your school are with some scholarship.

However, it is unlikely to get a big scholarship given your background is not VERY strong.

Thank you so much, so do you think it is possible to get full scholarship? I mean full tuition waiver? or is it possible to get half tuition waiver?Really thanks for your comments

BTW, how to find out the yeild ratio of the MBA program, I can't find it in the school's website.Many thanks!

you can google using key words like "University of Connecticut MBA yield", and you can see FT/USnews and other websites which contain some statistics of past years.

Of course this is the overall situation. How you will get a nice scholarship really depends on your overall application. Nothing is impossible, but in this round, 100% tuition waiver should be a small event in probability sense.

Thank you very much for your suggestions!So do you think I need to write additional letter to admission committee to push them give me some scholarship? Thanks

佳韵

I mean should I write letters to them regularly to tell them my progress in work and my achievements recently?

I guess, if you can show your passion about their program, and, given your background is strong enough, show them you do need the assistance to finance the study, you can make a good case. But not over-push.
