Has anyone else been waiting longer than the 6-8 weeks Fordham said it would take them to make a decision?

Sort of. I applied January 3rd, but last minute decided to retake the LSAT in February. My last date change was on March 3rd but nothing since then. Im still not under review, just listed as complete.

Oh man. Guess I shouldn't expect anything until April

Got scholarship email today - 20k/yr. Their website says tuition + everything else = approx 80k/yr, so I'd need a lot more to make fordham a serious consideration.

[MEAhrnsbrak]

Has anybody had any movement since the beginning of March?

[Trumpet101]

Has anyone submitted Fordham's financial aid application and received any word about need-based grants? Website says they range from $2000-20,000 per year but I don't personally know anyone who's received one.

Additionally, anyone try negotiation for increased scholarship? Any luck (and if so, significant boost?)?

Submitted 1/3, UR 2 or 3 today. Was UR 3/10 before.

Fordham:
Complete 1/13
date changed 2/24

Just hoping I'm in the next batch of decisions

I had a date change to 3/18 not sure if it's UR2 or UR3. Does fordham say decision made or does it stay complete??

I'm anxiously hoping to make it off of the waitlist

I just meant in general lol - in an alternate universe where life was perfect I would like to get an email confirming I'm off the waitlist on 4/16

[storpappa]

That would be helped along if people would be more aggressive in sending the schools that have ruled out a rejection letter.
Just a simple email that says "I have made another decision, please withdraw my application"

I read it here on TLS from an old thread - "Your safety is someone elses reach".

I think 1/14 with 2 or 3 date changes. The last date change was 3/16.

Does your status checker say decision rendered or anything like that? Or did it just stay at complete?

[nyp165]

"Decision Status: Congratulations you have been admitted!"
