I am hoping that soon, but last year it was April 12th so we still have some time left…
Did you guys complete all the requirements?

yeah, i am doing my last requirement this semester

That’s nice! I am mostly worried about how much Financial Aid weighs into admission for international students :confused:
Because since grades are no longer everything I am terrified.

its need blind for 3-2 internationals

Not anymore. Check the website. They also sent an email saying it was no longer need-blind for internationals.

When did they send out the email?

About 2 weeks ago

Maybe its for 2023 combined plan applicants? because I received a confirmation email in January (after the application deadline) saying that it is need-blind for internationals. And if they suddenly change it to need-aware three weeks before the admission results, I don’t think it is fair for all of us who applied believing that it is need-blind. Does it say in the email that you can decide to request a change for your application regarding your financial aid status as the policy recently changed? Or did they mention any deadlines for the request of change regarding you Fin Aid status?
