They are binding

KetchupOnPasta

14:02

I would honestly ask uva for ane extension

NT-GLTY

14:02

Are they still binding if scholarship negotiations are still open?

Fireblade09

14:03

I would need an extension for both--Duke's deposit is on 4/26. It would also look really fishy to email back the scholarship office and say "actually, please DON'T give me my decision on the 24th like you promised."

NT-GLTY

14:03

If you're in active negotiation and waiting for a response, that seems like a good reason to grant you an extension

NT-GLTY

14:03

and/or let you double deposit

Fireblade09

14:03

It's so weird because Duke has been so, so nice and I really think they would be kind to me, but realistically they have no reason to and that's just rose tinted glasses

KetchupOnPasta

14:04

why would you have to ask duke for an extension? if they offer you a full, it will be before the deadline and you will just deposit asap no?

Fireblade09

14:04

For all I know, Duke scholarships has reached out to their current full-ride offers and asked if they plan on coming so they can go ahead and award them elsewhere

Fireblade09

14:04

I assume one of the fulls that I'm waiting to open up won't decline until the deadline

KetchupOnPasta

14:05

they said they'll get back by 24th, I'll just listen to them

Fireblade09

14:05

Yeah, that's how I'm leaning. The odds of getting an extension back from BOTH of them this late is low and looks bad. If they said the 24th, that makes me think they're working something up

Fireblade09

14:06

Also I'm kinda like...they could have just sent me my new offer on the 24th. I have no idea why they sent me this email yesterday to tease the full-ride if they didn't expect something to change

KetchupOnPasta

14:07

maybe deadline to accept mordecai is the 24th?

NT-GLTY

14:07

I don't think there's harm in asking for an extension at UVA by telling them you are up for a full-ride scholarship at Duke but possibly won't know until after UVA's deposit deadline.

Fireblade09

14:07

@KetchupOnPasta: possible. I just have no idea.

Fireblade09

14:08

It's all so non-transparent, ugh. And I want to believe they have my best interest at heart but why would they, as far as I know they don't HAVE to give out a certain number of Mordecai's

KetchupOnPasta

14:09

they probably do. donors have expectations

LateScandalousCaterpillar

14:20

You just got an email?

jb2028

14:20

@Fireblade09: Yes, Duke likely has to give out whatever number of Mordecais. Any portion of the endowment that funds Mordecais will be restricted (can't be spent on other stuff) and to some extent donor funds are use-it-or-lose-it - if you don't spend the money, it's hard to go and ask a donor to renew their gift

jb2028

14:21

So it's in universities' interest to spend that money every year, and use it to enroll as many promising students as they can
