My app has been complete since 1/20. Before, I was fairly confident with a 161, even though I only have a 3.1/3.2 - but the longer I wait, the more I feel like a waitlist is comming. All this waiting is killing me. Most schools want the deposit by April 15th!

same here, but i went complete 1/8 with a 162 and 3.59. it's getting pretty frustrating since i've got some nice offers that i am considering and just want to make a decision.

also your tar is probably the most underrated show of all time

totally feel the same way.
complete 1/7, 167, 3.52

I really want to know because while I haven't heard from 3 other schools as well, villanova is the only one at this point that could change where I end up going. haha this is also making me look at my status checker way too often.

If it makes you feel better, I've been complete since 2/3 with a 153/3.8. Yah...

I would have withdrawn, but I'm so cheap, and because I paid $12 for a decision (sacrificing a tube of beautiful lipgloss that was limited time only) I want that decision.

I wouldn't say the most underrated (possibly in terms of critical acclaim though). But, it's up there. Thought the show was HILARIOUS, and very much wish it was still on. However, this goes for a number of other shows. RIP Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, Pushing Daisies, Freaks and Geeks, Wonderfalls, The Days, and about a million more that I can't think of at the moment.

For some reason I'm too retarded to figure out how to multi-quote. Anyway, I feel the same way. I couldn't withdraw, 1, because of the money I spent. 2. Because curiosity always gets the best of me. Even if it's a reject, I still want to know.

Check your status kiddos...I went under review yesterday (applied 02/04). btw, did you know that most schools update your status after 6pm? I was told this by personnel at American and so now i'm only fretting about it after it hits that mark. Also, what's the deal with scholarships having already been doled out?

Congrats to those of you in :)

It took me about two months to go from complete to accepted. Nova is slow with their turn around it seems. Hang in there guys.

Has anyone got any scholarship info in the past week and a half?

I'm going to be visiting Villanova and I'm hoping to meet with someone at the aid office to see if I will be offered anything. 164 and 3.65 has got me nothing so far.

Any ideas for how to approach the topic and leave with an offer? I don't want to come off to arrogant or anything, but I want them to know that even though I've gotten offers from higher ranked schools, I'm very interested in Nova. I guess I should just tell them that...

They have already given out all of their scholarship offers and say they won't be making any more offers until after the April 15th deposit, and then there is only the possibility of offers.

It took me about 5 days to receive a decision after going In Review. Since it's late in the cycle, I'm sure you will hear shortly! Good luck!
