The verdict

No displacement

Subject: Outside-scholarship treatment question, fall applicant

Dear Agnes Scott Financial Aid Office,

I'm a fall applicant reviewing how outside scholarships interact with my institutional aid package. I've read the public policy at https://www.agnesscott.edu/admission/undergraduate-admission/scholarships-financial-aid/index.html and the $67,935 cost-of-attendance worksheet.

Can you confirm that a $5,000 private outside scholarship, added after my package is built, stacks on top of institutional merit and need-based aid up to COA, without reducing any institutional grant dollars?

Is there a specific reporting form I need to file when the outside award is confirmed?

A written answer (email is fine) is important because the outside-scholarship awarding bodies want confirmation before disbursing. Thank you for the time.

247 of 272 verified schools publish at least one four-year renewable merit award.
Agnes Scott is one of them. The cohort minority (25 schools) only awards one-year scholarships, which means the four-year value families assume on a brochure quote isn't guaranteed at every school.
