Re: URM 2017-2018 Cycle Thread
Ok, so on FAFSA you are able to only put info for up to 10 schools. I applied to more than 10, so should I just wait and see how my cycle goes and I add/remove schools as I get more decisions? Or is there something else I have to do to add more schools?

Go back into the fafsa and remove the 10 you originally had and add the ones you still need. You can submit it as a corrected FAFSA and the additional schools will get it also.Mikey wrote:Ok, so on FAFSA you are able to only put info for up to 10 schools.

Look through his blog- he has a pdf of hundreds of pages of his responses to people's questions sorted by topic. One whole section is wait list questions

I was thinking of doing that but I just wasn't sure. Do we have to update schools with 2017 tax return info when we get it? My only concern about doing that method of deleting previous schools is that fafsa says schools taken off the list won't receive any NEW information. So the 2017 tax return stuff was tripping me out.

There's an option to make a correction. Just take off schools you know you do not want and put on ones that you do.Mikey wrote:Hmm, alright thanks guys.Law School Native wrote:Did this for one of my schools and it was easy.EdTheLaywer wrote:Go back into the fafsa and remove the 10 you originally had and add the ones you still need.

Did you guys title your diversity statements and/or personal statements? I was looking at my sample app and I wonder if it will be hard for the reviewer to tell that a page of the app is for one type of essay and another page is for a different type of essay.

How’s everyone holding out in regards to the T-14 thus far? I applied back in mid Novemver and haven’t heard from anywhere aside from Georgetown. So heartbroken starting to feel like there’s going to be a wave of waitlists/rejects coming my way

In at USC, Vandy and Georgetown thus far. Rejected at UCLA, Texas, and Michigan (none had my diversity statement, does anyone know if this could have hurt me??). Priority Reserve at Duke (also didn't have diversity statement)
Waiting on Columbia(had interview), NYU (currently UR2), Cornell(had interview), and Penn (UR2) for decisions in the near future. Just submitted Chicago last week and prepared to wait out Radio Silence from Virginia.
Kind of nervous that I'm facing only dings but also learning to be content with what I have.
