Sorry, the seminary asked me not to share with others, so I only feel comfortable making this anonymous. Note that I did call on the same day the acceptance letter was received as I heard from others that some of the scholarships were on a "first come, first served" basis until they run out of funds.

Edited to add that when the sem asked us how much we could pay, I did come up with a number, even though it made me uncomfortable. I also voluntarily shared our incomes and the tuition being paid now for all our kids so they would understand why we are asking. They came back to me with a different number in between what the tuition is and what I asked for.

It would be helpful for everyone else if those that are posting about large scholarship awarded would give their income range along with seminary name.

Without the above the information, a scholarship amount is pointless and gives hope to some parents where there is none to be had.

It makes a huge difference if the seminary in question is a mainstream popular place vs a new or unpopular place.
Same goes for a family with an AGI of $100k and 6 kids vs someone else making $175k and has 4 kids.
