I mean, assuming the next option is Monday, can you really call February 23rd mid-February? What the hell NYU. If you miss a self-stated deadline at least acknowledge it.

NYU is the only school I applied to that has missed a date like that. Then again thinking about it they are the only school that has given me a date like that I am aware of (or it has not yet arrived yet for say Chicago).

Got my award - pretty happy with it! Surprised it came on a Sunday, as well.

They sent me an email saying they'd completed review of my financial aid app and a link to view the award after logging in.

Got my award too. Pleasant surprise on a Sunday and I'm really happy with the offer!

Oh crazy. Did yall apply for any named schoollys? Also is it on the admitted student page or a separate one?

Nah no named scholarship applications. And it's on the same site where you fill out the aid applications. They sent an e-mail letting me know, though.

Didn't apply for anything named, and it's on a separate one. I had to log in using my birthday even though I already updated my password on the admitted students website

Do you mean there is an institutional form to complete as well? I only did fafsaand need access. I'm so out of it.

There was a separate form if you wanted merit-aid only that was on there, so you should be fine if you did the need access. Maybe that's why my offer came earlier, though.

Oh okay, yeah that makes sense. I thought you had to do need access no matter what but maybe that was just for named scholarships. I just kept seeing to submit it asap before interviews. Thanks for clearing that up.

Did anyone get an email about their FA award today who had applied for a named scholarship (I applied for IILJ).

My "award" was being informed that there is no award, so… I'm assuming this just straight-up means there will be nothing coming.

I have heard that you are only considered for non named scholarships once the FA office is notified by the commitees that you wont be advancing as a finalist for the named scholarship. I could be wrong but that was my understanding so I would think if the FA office reviewed you for aid that's what it would mean.

+1. In one of the earlier emails to accepted students, the finaid office said your scholly offer may be delayed if you have a pending interview. Ergo, if you received your offer, it means you do not have a pending interview.

All right, thanks guys.

Looks like I am not going to NYU, then.

You are supposed to fill out an aid application? Does your scholarship award letter only come after you complete the aid application? It appears I dropped the ball on this one...

Yeah, if you didn't fill out need access and wanted merit only. It's here: https://faaps.law.nyu.edu/studentmain.html

Got my award today as well. I applied for merit only, so I just filled out the internal form they sent. Very pleased with the offer; PM for details.

betty_bojangles · Post by **betty_bojangles** » Sun Feb 22, 2015 9:46 pm

is it just those who applied for merit aid only that are receiving their offers?

I applied for both need- and merit-based and got the notification today.
