• Hello I am making this post because I am interested I'm UCF but I have no way of comparing their financial aid summary to USF. USF is offering me 32k in merit based scholarships distrusted through 4 years, not including bright futures. Would this be lower or higher at ucf?

  If you are strongly considering USF, check out the raise.me site where you can earn micro scholarships for different things like grades, perfect attendance, volunteering...Not every college participates but USF does so if you want a little extra money, it's a good way to get it.

I guess it's mostly just the tedious work of typing up my transcript getting to me because I already had to do this twice. Thoughts? Source: over 1 year ago

• A few questions about FIU

  Onto your questions. No, dont pay the $200 deposit. Call them and ask what they want you to do. Yes, FIU accepts raise.me. If your merit tuition scholarship is $1,500 a year, and your raise.me is $2,500 a year, it is likely that what they will do (usually) is replace the merit scholarship with the raise.me microscholarships. As such, instead of $4,000 a year (combined sum), you'll probably get the $2,500 a year.... Source: over 2 years ago
