Tonight I logged on to my university account to see if my scholarship money had been posted yet. Once it is posted, then I can pay the remainder and be finished with paying for school.
Well, I received the shock of my life. Underneath the listing for my $400 scholarship, there was *another* scholarship listed for $2000.00!!!! I clicked on the link to find out what it was for. It said that $1k had been awarded for the first semester, and $1k for the second semester. I then Googled the name : USC continuing students. From the information I found, it appears that it is a scholarship for students who are continuing students at the University of Southern California.
I've already emailed the financial aid office to let them know. Sigh ... it sure would be nice if that money really *was* mine. Maybe I should have gone to USC instead (though their tuition is probably that much higher too.)

I'm up to 2,454 Swagbucks now. So tomorrow I'll be able to start buying my December Amazon cards.
Oh How Lovely It Would Be ...

Yikes! You're right, a USC student definitely needs that money more than I do.
Whitestripe,
Yeah, it does. I'm still happy for my $400 though!
