This is my first time ever of applying to any graduate school , I applied about three weeks ago and got a response today to either accept or decline the admission offer. I’ll like to know for those with experience or thorough information, at what point does the decision come in for the scholarship offer?
Also I was asked to pay a commitment fee of $300 applied towards tuition in the future

This is my first time applying to graduate programmes in the USA also. From my experience, admission offers usually came within a month of applying and scholarships offers came a few weeks after or along with the admission offer. However, all my offers allowed me at least a month or two after receiving the offer to make a commitment and pay the fee.

One school offered me admission around Oct 12 and scholarship a week later with a deadline of 5 January to pay commitment fee.

Another school offered me admission in early November and scholarship mid January with deadline of 1 March to accept offer and pay fee.

The deadline for the payment of the commitment fee is 1st of April. I really want to see the scholarship offer before I pay the commitment fee.
I’m hoping I can get a full ride before I can make any commitments whatsoever

Hi Omotola,

I am guessing this is Georgetown! Did they ever give you any funding?

Hi Omotola,

Out of curiousity, I would like to know how you found out you weren't offered any funding. Did you receive an email, or did you email UGA to ask about funding?
