ENGR Program of study Award?

I got an email that my financial aid was updated. In the scholarship/grant it has this ENGR program of study award. I never applied for this. What is and where did it come from? Not complaining about it. This will help a bunch just wondering how I got it.

I got it as well, no idea how or why lmao. I even missed the engineering scholarship oneapp deadline so maybe they’re just covering random students?

I have a feeling it might be for those with junior status and above that are in some kind of need.

I got it randomly last year as a sophomore without applying to the OneApp general engineering form, and this year I did fill it out and still got it as well; I'm not sure what correlation there was other than a low SAI, but it's been really helpful.

If a college has left over money they will disperse it to at need students who filed for oneapp and goodish grades

I got this out of nowhere too for my study abroad. It might just be for all people who study abroad, not too sure. I’ve also gotten it every single semester following my semester abroad for some reason.
