95% $3,000 
McMaster Honour Awards 
Final Admission Average to Program Value 
90 - 94.99% $1,200 
85 - 89.99% $750 
80 - 84.99% $500

 Overall averages must be getting higher each year and they had to adjust it for that.
 
That is unfortunate.
 
Over at  Brock University you would have got $4000 with your 87%.

 Over 4 years. If you get 93% and above, you get HOLY GODLY $14,000 entrance scholarship.
 
That is a brand new car!
 
You will need it though, caused their campus is literally a parking lot + building next to a parking lot + another building.

		 Just your luck? You got an acceptance, thats some good luck if you ask me. Go celebrate, if the uni shafted you for money, then its just conditioning because they all tend to do that.
