Today, I received a full tuition scholarship to my ideal university in the mail. This would be perfect, except I sent an email to the college 2 days earlier, informing them that I couldn't attend because of financial concerns. FML

hi OP here again. cost of living is not included in the scholarship at all. no it is not more than the tuition of course but it is still sadly too much. for the field i am going into, i will end up getting a doctorate degree so going to a CC would not be a wise choice at all.

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

I agree with #1. Besides, even it is not related to your email, you can always contact them again to say you changed your mind due to the new happy situation. It's only 2 days.

Could this not be related to the email?

2 days is fast enough to get mail anywhere in the continental us. Especially overnighted.

Email them again and tell them that your financial situation has been resolved.

CALL!!! Don't email. This is far too urgent!!

A follow up email is all this one takes, so: excellent news, OP! You deserve it! (Are we allowed to use that button to offer congratulations?)

Call the college and speak to admissions. I'm sure once you explain the situation things can be resolved. Good luck OP!

Yes, definitely call! You will get better and faster results than with an email.

They may have not processed your information. If your uni is anything like mine then you have pleeeeenty of time.

It's not too late to email them informing them that you have received this. Emails are instant, snail mail is just that - snail mail.

Just smile and accept the scholarship.
