Really strange that they sent it to you two years ago and you haven't received it yet.

Checking in

Still waiting to hear - If nothing I'll be at SMU in the fall.

Looking at the dates provided on LSN I think a wave of wait lists will be coming out this week :/

still on hold and graduation is a day away

still on hold and graduation is a day away

Have you contacted them or sent a LOCI? I've contacted them two separate times about when I should hear a decision and when I should hear about any possible scholarship award and they were very accurate with both timelines.

Yes--- I've sent a letter of continued interest, I took a tour, I've emailed and essentially they said by May 31

Ahh that sucks, hopefully you'll hear something soon.

Received scholarship info today and will now officially be attending in the fall.

So if your seat deposit wasn't due till later this month don't give up hope for a scholarship yet, and good luck to those still waiting to hear back about admissions.

Hey Zoolaf! Did you negotiate before receiving your most recent scholarship information or did they just send it to you unsolicited? I was accepted about 3 weeks ago and haven't received any financial aid/scholly info yet (and deposit deadline is quickly approaching)

I sent an email at the beginning of April (was admitted late March) asking for a general timeframe as I had deposit deadlines at other schools coming up that offered me significant scholarships. I told them the money amounts at other schools and when the deadlines were. I got an email back saying that since my deposit deadline wasn't until April 30 I wouldn't hear anything about a scholarship until after the April 15 deadline for students that had been admitted earlier than me. She also said she'd forward my email to the scholarship committee for when they went back to review. I ended up receiving scholarship info on April 23. I'm not sure if my email helped or if I would've received the same amount no matter what.

Idk when the next seat deposit deadline is but since April 30 was the latest one I assume they've started reviewing scholarships again and will be sending them out over the next week or two. Of course that's if my situation was normal protocol. Never hurts to send an email though, especially if you have awards at other schools.

OK thanks! I think I might just wait it out for another week and see what happens.

[Mandakay16]

I'm wondering how things are going to go - I applied REALLY late in the cycle.

I actually applied after I found out they extended the deadline. I'm curious as to why they did that, honestly. I'm wondering if there is a chance for late appliers since this is a new "thing."

[nmm10e]

Decided to go ahead and pay my seat deposit for UF since we still aren't seeing movement..

[phaynes1]

Has anyone on hold seen any movement lately?

[nmm10e]

I haven't seen any. Emailed admissions last week and the director told me they're still working on giving out decisions. It's hard to be patient so late in the game

Tell me about it man. I'm currently set to go on a big scholly at the local tier 4. The admissions status checker states that all final decisions will be made by May 31st so I'm hoping to get a decision really soon!

[phaynes1]

9 days away from the deadline...

[nmm10e]

Just went under review

[Jmart082]

I can't believe my status still reads application complete. Slowest response time of any school I applied to by a wide margin.

[Nucky]

Withdrew. Hope one of you gets my spot.

[nmm10e]

IN VIA PHONE CALL!
That was quite a wait to say the least

edit: I will be attending

[Young Marino]

I also got in today via phone call. Don't know if I'll be attending though.

[phaynes1]

Congrats guys, that's awesome!
