Did anybunny receive confirmation after submitting the Sarah Stewart Scholarship?
Nope. No confirmation. No date when the winners will be announced. Very annoying tbh

What happened to the ranking?
They dropped to 55 in Research. I really wouldn’t put much stock in this (or USNews rankings in general). For one, Georgetown isn’t a research-focused powerhouse so of course they won’t be ranked highly if they’re not pulling in ivy/Hopkins/state flagship university funding. For another, Georgetown clearly matches at the same caliber as some of the aforementioned schools.

Anyone heard when sarah stewart scholars will be announced? If we already got a financial aid offers can we assume we didn't get it?

Does anyone else not have their financial aid reward listed on their MyAccess account? I emailed my documents by the deadline and it has been a couple of weeks since I have had my netID.

sent in a letter of interest in March, would it look desperate to send in another update or letter now before the next WL wave?
 
Yeah are we just supposed to keep sending updates/letters if we are on the WL? Asking for a friend.....

Feels like I'm sending love letters and being left on read :cryi:

I believe via email. I reached out to Dr. Cheng to see if there was a timeline but she just said they're still deliberating and should come to a decision soon. If anyone else wants to email though to find out if we'll find out before April 15th, would be amazing!

When did you email her?

I sent in three update letters between my interview and my acceptance decision lol. MD/PhD, but still.

Do any other admitted students (particularly those admitted one month+ ago) still not see a financial package tab on their MyAccess? I'm just wondering if I'm missing something or if it hasn't been released for everyone yet.
