Did those who received scholarship offers fill out their fafsa in advance? The acceptance packet has a yellow sheet saying in order to be considered for financial aid you must fill out fafsa first. I assume/hope this includes merit-based financial aid?

LOL apparently.

Never would have expected a waitlist from Pepperdine after an acceptance from Hastings. Splitter cycles....

This. Does anyone who has been accepted already know if there are any changes on the status checker to give me a clue as to whether I was accepted or not? Or do I just have to wait for the snail mail?

There was no clue in the status checker about whether I was accepted or not. I think you have to wait for the snail mail and just hope for a big envelope.

I was offered a full scholly with the stipulation that I must remain in the top 30% of the class every year. Does anyone know how this plays out year-to-year? Do people usually end up keeping the scholly, or is there a high rate of students who lose the scholly? Thanks.

I'm pretty sure I answered this a few pages back. But no, I was accepted 1/5 and there's nothing under mailings. I do believe my letter was dated 1/6, though.

Good luck!

I'm 156/3.4. A lot of us seem to have gotten our decisions on 2/29.

Got a letter today that I was waitlisted after a decision rendered on 2/29. I'm from LA so that is why I probably got mine already.
