the college (Stony Brook) I'm starting next fall gave me a full scholarship.
A week ago, I found out I also got the national merit scholarship at $2000 a year. I got the college-sponsored scholarship, meaning it was awarded by my college after.
What happens? Do I get to keep the extra money or what? I tried looking it up but couldn't find it.

I got a full scholarship from my school for volleyball.. but i was also awraded some academic money as well. so, the volleyball scholarship money covered what the academic money didn't. I would imagine your situation would be similar. your school will cover what the 2000$ doesnt. OR another possibilty is that the 2000$ could go towards your books, or housing, or something school related that your full scholarship doesnt cover.
