Where is everyone located who has yet to receive their scholarship info? I'm trying to gauge when I can expect to get it...

A college town of 100k people in the midwest.

South Florida and status checker update was on 2/6

How long did it take for NeedAccess to process your payment? It's approaching two days for me which seems a bit ridiculous.

Same day!! I used PayPal.

[LawBron James]

Anyone else who had their scholarship decision mailed 2/6 still waiting? I don't remember any other of my mailed stuff taking over a week.

FYI to anyone who experiences this...

I called NeedAccess today after seeing that my payment was still pending since Tuesday. They said Paypal did not provide them with a confirmation and asked me to forward my confirmation email from PayPal. Once I did this, they said they were processing and I could expect to be complete in the next 1-2 business days.

Moral of the story... call NeedAccess if your payment takes more than a day. The customer service rep was incredibly friendly and speedy -- I wish I had just called sooner!

Damn you are unlucky

[LawBron James]

Waited all that time for a lowball offer.

75k here. Less than Mich, but not a bad start.

has anyone from the 2/11 mailing group received their scholarship letter?

[matlan72]

Received my letter today (2/11 group)... Little lower than for what I had hoped but still decent considering the COA.

My apologies if this has already been asked/discussed...

I have my Skype scholarship interview coming up and I was just wondering if anyone who has gone through it already would be willing to give a brief rundown. What sort of questions were asked, how long it lasted, etc.
Thanks

Was just placed on the Priority Reserve list, am I wrong or is this just a fancy name for wait list?

Haven't had mine yet, but people say it's chill:

Any one have further advice/tips about the scholarship interview?

It's super short, super friendly, and super easy.

Have a reason of "Why Duke" and "Why Law," and be candid about any extenuating financial circumstances that aren't reflected in need access.

You'll be fine.

matlan, where do you live?

How long have you all waited between the date of your interview and the date your status checker states your award has been sent?

Yeesh, hope I don't have to wait that long.

Also, should have included this in my prior post -- had you completed your NeedAccess prior to your interview?

Thanks for the info.

[p89sean16]

Received scholarship info today - tad bit less than Michigan offered. Was in the 2/11 scholarship letter sent group. Feel free to message for specs.

Really? They told me in my interview that $$ was based on both merit and need and that I wouldn't receive my scholly until I had filled out NA. Possible they changed their policy though, I interviewed like the first day.

[JFO1833]

If think this links back to the scholarship form you probably filed out a while ago. There were check boxes for merit and need + merit. If you checked only merit then I don't think need access was required. If you need + merit then you need need access.

[LoganCouture]

Just got back from work, scholly came in the mail (2/11 sent). PM for amount.
