About outside scholarships<\/h2>","content":"The strength of the candidates who apply to the University often makes our applicants excellent candidates for outside scholarships. The amount of the outside scholarships received will reduce the work-study and loan awards before reducing university need-based grants. The combination of outside awards and URochester-packaged awards may not exceed a student\u2019s institutional need or cost of attendance.\r\n\r\nWhen you receive your award letter from the agency providing your outside scholarship, you need to forward a copy to the Financial Aid Office. You can also email it directly to your financial aid counselor.\r\n\r\nScholarship checks should be mailed to the Bursar\u2019s Office, not the Financial Aid Office.<\/strong>\r\n\r\nBursar's Office\r\nMeliora Hall\r\n775 Library Road, RM 330\r\nBOX 270037\r\nRochester, NY 14627","background_color":"#ffffff","width":"width-medium"},{"acf_fc_layout":"text","anchor":"search-engines","css_class":"","title":"
