Nope, I'm waiting until I hear from some other schools that hopefully will offer me more substantial scholarships, so my negotiation request can include several other offers that are higher than Fordham's offer. Still not expecting an increase though.
what were your scholly offers? pm me if you like
and how long did it take for them to give you a scholarship offer?

c/o 2014 they were amendable to scholarship negotiations, so I would imagine with the drop in applications since then that they might still be open to negotiations

Congrats! Any idea when your most recent status date was prior to today? Not sure if Fordham updates the date after you've gone complete like ND and some other schools...

Awesome, thanks! Guess I shouldn't expect anything until at least next week.

Okay, so I applied in late September. But apparently my application has been "incomplete" this entire time because I told them I had plans to take the February LSAT....
I'm so miffed.

I went through this earlier in the cycle, so I feel your pain. Submitted in early Nov and registered for Dec (though I didn't tell them that), so didn't go "complete" until late Nov, when I emailed them to review it ASAP. Now I'm kinda wondering if my app is going to get switched to "incomplete" again while I'm waiting for Feb. I really hope they just see my request from earlier and review it soon.

Hi guys,
Has anyone received the need based fee waiver for app? I submitted my application for need based fee waiver request weeks ago and they told me they would render a decision in the upcoming weeks.
I emailed them after 2 weeks and they just sent me a link to a need based application again... I am confused
Should I just pay and submit app?
Thanks and gl!

From twitter 13 mins ago:
"Last decisions of the week going out shortly...the @FLSAdmissions team is prepping for our first ASD of the year - tomorrow!!"
Still haven't moved since going complete on 12/23 but figured this would be good news for others.

For those who have been accepted, what was the time difference between going complete/status change and hearing back? Getting anxious....
Seriously? What are you waiting for?
Now there's a charge.
