I forgot to ask you, did your status checker update before your news of being admitted (that you know of)?

I was checking with no updates up until 1 PM or so and then I got the letter around 4:30, and then post-that my status checker said today's date and that I was accepted, so my guess is it all went down simultaneously.

Just got an email from them called "Financial Aid information" and I thought it was gonna be a scholly but instead it just said "If you are selected for a merit award, you will be advised by e-mail within two weeks of receipt of your acceptance letter." JUST TELL ME ALREADY

Definitely. I'm negotiating with BU first and then going to use that w Fordham

Do you have a deposit deadline? (For people who got in off the wait list)

I was accepted off the WL on the 9th and my deposit deadline is the 22nd.

It appears most people get notices that they are off the waitlist on Friday! So hopefully tomorrow is the day! App went complete in March, Waitlisted in late April.

Just got an email saying they will be looking to the wait list after Memorial Day weekend (after the 2nd deposit deadline):

"Our second deposit is now less than two weeks away and in anticipation of that deadline, we are compiling a small group of applicants we would like to send to the Admissions Committee shortly after the Memorial Day holiday weekend."
