Is this the only wave for the Levy or was this just for people who had been admitted by a certain date?

I checked my status checker today for shiggles...Has anyone out here noticed this on theirs?

Wondering if I should be expecting some super secret mail..or something.

I remember reading in last year's thread that these are "re-offerable" so I'm sure that there is still hope for those who didn't get these in the first wave.

Yeah I have that, too. It's most likely for an email they sent on the same day. At least, that's what I've seen with other status checkers and no-subject mailings.

Are most of you guys/gals attending the Thurs night festivities for ASW? Or just fri/sat?

Also do you think the travel stipend would cover the cost of a cab ride? Live about 30 mins away and thinking about taking advantage of the travel stipend and getting a long cab ride home.

The Levy email says they're offered on a rolling basis and you have to accept by mid April if you want it, otherwise it goes away to be given to someone else.

I really hope today is ze day for financial aid.

wait so do we know if the tax returns are required to get an initial offer? I filled out the FAFSA/Need Access forms (as I assume most of you have), but don't have my parents' tax info yet. Will I not get an offer until that's in?

Historically you will get an offer even if you haven't yet submitted tax returns.

Nope, not yet. I emailed them last Tuesday, and they said that they planned to have offers out in the next "week or two."

Checking in. Heading to ASW in a few weeks. Anyone have beef on accommodations? Staying at Penn's reserved block of rooms vs staying with student vs going another route?
