That form was annoying, I did it earlier this week. I had to somehow do the math to estimate what my parents contributed to paying for UG and look up all my old loan amounts, blah. I want scholly $$$

I didn't take out any loans...I had scholarship money and worked and paid for the rest. SO...I can pretty much just take tuition costs, and fully estimate that stuff, I image, right?

That's what I did. I looked up my previous and current loans for more exact amounts. Then I estimated the rest of my parents contrib and my contrib based on tuition and approx costs of everything in UG.

I like that "parents contribution and self contribution" was one category. Since I earned 10k, and they contributed 100k, it's both of us! But it obscures who paid what.

I was just talking to my mom on the phone about this fact!!!

Ugh me too, mine was pennies compared to theirs.

Only just applied a week ago, 169 3.8. I'm not too worried about acceptance, but I am wondering if/how much a scholarship could be affected by applying this late...?

Hard to tell, since they haven't given any out yet. I think you will still be just fine with those numbers.

Well then, I'll keep an eye on how your cycle goes

You'll be alright. I applied mid/late January and I'm pretty sure it didn't change anything with WU$TL.

No, it assumes parents paid all.

Source? That's what makes the most sense but still, assumption, no?

Joking. No clue.

complete 11/12, still waiting for ANY movement.

[coreno16]

How long is it taking everyone to go complete? I submitted my app 1/14 and status checker still has me at app received 1/14.

[Tullstone]

My last status update was on 1/5
What exactly does a status update mean anyway? Does that mean that the admissions committee just took a look at my app? or what? lol

[KingRajesh]

Ugh...

Still App Complete at 12/6.

I'd really enjoy some movement...

[username99]

complete 11/12, still waiting for ANY movement.

Same. BS.

[GoldenGopherHopeful]

Admitted students: The scholarships everyone keeps posting about are MERIT scholarships, right? I assume need-based financial aid decisions are made separately (after March 1?)

[onepass]

Ugh...

I've been complete since 12/2. Wouldn't it be nice if they would at least move us into 2011?

Complete since 11/30

Does WUSTL not do a UR status? does it just say complete until a decision is made?

[JJDancer]

yes

I've been in review since December, and it says so. Not even really sure if there is any difference, or if it's just some WUSTL ruse.
