The 5,500 Oakland students were mistakenly told they were receiving the Platinum Presidential Scholar Award, the school's highest grant which is good for $12,000 a year and covers nearly all of a freshman or sophomore's $13,934Those 5,500 had applied for university scholarships and had been granted lesser awards, typically between $1,000 to $5,000, and those will still be granted, according to Bierley.
The mishap, coupled with CMU's move to honor its mistaken scholarships, left a bad taste in the mouth of parent Gwen Poindexter, whose son Carnell Poindexter, a senior at West Bloomfield High School in Michigan, received the errant Oakland email.
