When did you go under review? I am in-state and anxiously awaiting a decision, but my status checker still says in review this morning. Thanks!qhryder32 wrote:Congrats to all those accepted and receiving those awesome scholarships!

I was complete 1/18 then first IR was 1/21 and the second was 2/7 and then a decision first thing this morning. I'm OOS and I'm shocked they'd even consider me, but am glad that they are! Hope you hear back soon with an acceptance!gcraggs wrote:When did you go under review? I am in-state and anxiously awaiting a decision, but my status checker still says in review this morning.

Thanks for the info. My first IR was 2/7, so sounds like I just need to be patient.

Will you go to ASW if you get a scholarship? I think they reimburse up to $300 for all scholarship recipients that matriculate.

Does ISIS show any useful information concerning financial aid or scholarship notification? I have apparently been granted resident status finally, that's exciting.chrisbru wrote:Oh yeah, I knew that! I got my scholarship 4 days after that email...

Did anyone go under review twice and get in? Or is that preliminary waitlist?

Re: IOWA 2011
Thanks for the Index numbers chribru. My Index is 178.44964 and was given a 75% scholarship...think I should try negotiate for more or am I just getting greedy?

Re: IOWA 2011
^^ It can't hurt to try and negotiate. Do you have a top third stipulation on the scholarship?

Re: IOWA 2011
Figured so much. I'm not terribly concerned, even without any scholarship it would probably still be the cheapest offer. I have a house in Iowa City so my COL will be significantly cheaper.
