Hey everyone, I recently got selected as a Horatio Alger O. Wayne Rollins Scholar and I’m super grateful . The scholarship says it’s a $15,000 scholarship to be used starting Fall 2027, but I’m actually an early graduate (16 years old) and I’ll be starting college this fall.
I applied for the junior scholarship because my transcript still listed me as an 11th grader at the time, so technically I wasn’t a senior yet when I applied. Now I’m kinda confused on what I should do 😭

Should I email them and explain my situation now, or just wait it out and see what happens? Has anyone been in a similar situation before?
