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. You can also send UCF your scholarship package offered by USF and see if they will come close to it. Have you even applied/been... Source: over 1 year ago

If you reported the raise.me before you got your finaid offer, they may have initially wanted to give you 20k in grants but they give you 18k in grants and 2k in raiseme instead. Source: over 1 year ago

As far as I know, all my merit and raise.me stacked when I got my aid package. Whichever ones they choose to award you get applied, but don't quote me 100% on this. I'd try emailing the financial aid office to make sure though. Source: over 1 year ago

My school counselor encouraged us to fill out our profile for raise.me last year to the junior class, but only two of my schools do micro-scholarships & I feel like they'd probably give scholarship offers larger than this anyway based on my stats. 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

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

Past year bidding prices can be seen on the bidding website itself, BOSS! :) It can also be viewed on afterclass.io (module/prof. Review website), but imo I find it buggier than just using BOSS. Source: almost 1 year ago

Websites like afterclass.io allows you to check out the different profs, so you can see which prof suits your learning style better. However bidding amounts are never predictable coz there IS inflation. In fact I myself am asking around of how to go by bidding in Y2 as I no longer have pre assigned mods and have to bid for everything myself >.<. Source: about 1 year ago

Heard some rants from other classmates where people pretend to not be proficient and go to classes and flaunt their skills... But looking at the review from afterclass.io , really sounds fun! Source: about 1 year ago
