Yeah, definitely no attachment. I'm probably near the beginning of the alphabet, if they are going out that way.

I'm in the middle of the alphabet, so not sure it has anything to do with that.

The email does mention aid, and says the letter is attached. But clearly, it's not. This is so weird. I guess I'll just wait until they notice their mistake?

"We are thrilled to inform you that we are able to provide scholarship assistance for your three years at the University of Chicago Law School. Please find attached your letter containing the details of your scholarship award and outlining your estimated total financial aid package.

As you review your estimated award on page 3, please note that you will not be required to borrow the full amount of the student loans listed in your Estimated Award Breakdown. You will have the opportunity to accept or decline those loans (in whole or in part) when you receive your final, verified student loan package from the Student Loan Administration in early summer after you have submitted your FAFSA and University of Chicago Application for Graduate Loans & Federal Assistance. The deadline for these forms is May 15.

Please read this letter carefully, and contact us if you have any questions. We look forward to getting to know you in the coming months and introducing you to our wonderful community!

Thank you,
Kevin"

Have any February admits received the email? It looks like I'm out of luck for now.

[Bronck]

I hope the reason we haven't received the email yet is because they found out they didn't add the attachments.

[AmandaPB]

Yeah, awesome lack of attachments. Anyone emailing them back about this?

[blank403]

pure speculation, but I imagine that part of the problem is that last years financial aid director (Karla Vargas) seems to have left her job this year. Kevin Petty seems to have taken over in her stead.

[kulshan]

I did.

[AS33]

I sure did.

[AmandaPB]

Alright, I did, too, just to be annoying.

Your avatar is quite fitting, given the circumstances.

Admitted in January, no email yet.

[jetissent]

I was a 1/13 admit and didn't receive the comical email. I'd image they are sending batches and stopped as soon as they noticed the error though.

January admit still waiting.

[AmandaPB]

Hopefully they fix it today.

[vincanity1]

Looks like they started with the 90k+ group?

+1 to both parts.

what makes you say this?

Stats/acceptances/scholarships of those who got the attachment-less email

Wait. How do we know how much they got if there was no attachment?

[vincanity1]

We don't. All I'm saying is that the people who received the email without an attachment are ballers who have crazy good stats and have gotten into HYS + have gotten great scholarships elsewhere

agreed. I was thinking along the same lines
