I'm waiting to hear details from people attending this weekend. I got in ED and have lived in NYC for a number of years, so 1) I'm definitely going to NYU, and 2) I'm already very familiar with the school's neighborhood and the rest of the city. I'd consider going to a later one if people think it's really fun or something, though.ph5354a wrote:So jealous of everyone going to ASW today! Who's going April 4??
Just happened to me too. Originally final stages date was 2/4. Did you apply for a named scholarship? Fin. Aid packages have been coming out on Fridays so maybe they're preparing for another batch today.moneyball026 wrote:Just had the Fin Aid website update me to "Application in Final Stages of Review" to 3/8, after having that same status on 1/24. I guess this means they're re-reviewing me? Anyone else receive a Fin Aid date update without an email or final scholarship package yet?
Yes, I applied for a named scholarship and was informed earlier this week I would not be receiving one. So they're preparing my inevitable $0 for today's batch I guess.ph5354a wrote:Just happened to me too. Originally final stages date was 2/4. Did you apply for a named scholarship? Fin.

No update for me, still at Final Review as of 2/27. I guess we'll see at some point today what this all means!ph5354a wrote:Just happened to me too. Originally final stages date was 2/4.

Sorry to hear that. What scholarship and how did you hear? did they email you or did you have to call?moneyball026 wrote: Yes, I applied for a named scholarship and was informed earlier this week I would not be receiving one. So they're preparing my inevitable $0 for today's batch I guess.
Seriously, I'd much rather hear the news now and start preparing my counter attack than have it dragged out like this.No update for me, still at Final Review as of 2/27. I guess we'll see at some point today what this all means!
Though really, if I'm no longer being considered for a name scholarship (which seems likely), just give me my financial aid package!
Hmm not me, but my original "final stages" date was later than yours. Did either of you apply for RTK?ph5354a wrote:Just happened to me too. Originally final stages date was 2/4.

Nope, IILJ.risa wrote: Hmm not me, but my original "final stages" date was later than yours. Did either of you apply for RTK?
I applied for the Jacobson Law and Business one and emailed them about it. They said all finalists were contacted.ph5354a wrote:Sorry to hear that.

Sorry dude. Here's to squeezing at least a penny out of them. Did you email the general financial aid address or JD Admit? Maybe I should do the same so I can at least start coping with the disappointment.moneyball026 wrote:

They are all out.facile princeps wrote:For those in the know, do you think that all the email invitations for AnBryce finalist interviews have been sent out already? If not, do you think that a written commitment to accept the award if offered would convince them to make me an offer? As of now, I feel like I would honestly take it over H (at sticker or minimal grants) if I got it.

I was expecting one today too once the status updates happened, but maybe not. Did your faaps status date change?Audeamus wrote:so any thoughts on whether there will be a finaid email wave today? Haven't they usually come earlier in the afternoon?
ph, did u get the named u interviwed for? i never heard about jacobson and still havnt heard finaidph5354a wrote:I was expecting one today too once the status updates happened, but maybe not.

I hope I'm wrong, but I wonder if the status date changes are for those that they had been holding for review for named scholarships and then put back in the hopper after all the finalists had been contacted...voytek wrote:My status re-updated to Final Stage of Review today too. Wonder what this means. FWIW, I also applied for IILJ
Nope, I never interviewed for IILJ. I know the first round of finalists did an informal thing on Wednesday before ASW, but I had been holding out hope I'd be in the second round... Maybe there'll be a big wave of cash money this afternoon. I don't really care about the named as much as I do about just getting some $$.az21833 wrote:ph, did u get the named u interviwed for? i never heard about jacobson and still havnt heard finaidph5354a wrote:I was expecting one today too once the status updates happened, but maybe not.

wtf
Nothing here. Between this and my sister's Harvard failure (she said the universe told her I would hear something by 4 today. She's not normally that weird, so I may have given that too much credence) today was a pretty disappointing day.voytek wrote:I take the silence in this thread to mean that no emails regarding financial aid went out this evening.
Haha. But did her prophecy specify time zones? What if someone at Harvard's working late and you hear back at 4 Western time?ph5354a wrote:Nothing here.
