Acceptance

<p>Does anyone know how to go about getting anyone of the listed scholarships on the website? I tried calling today and no one picked up. I qualify for the transfer scholarship but do you think it would have gotten with my acceptance letter or would they send it later?</p>

<p>i don't really know about the scholarship, however i've also had trouble getting someone on the phone, but you should keep trying to call. I emailed them a question once and didn't get a response for almost 3 weeks.</p>

<p>What does "Inst Acceptance (offer)" mean?</p>

<p>Congrats! It means you're in.</p>

<p>Aww! Congratualations.</p>

<p>I did call I AM LEGEND lol. I called like 5 different numbers almost 50 billion times and no one picked up. I left a message and no one called me back lol. I mean how can there be so many numbers for financial aid and not one pick up? </p>

<p>I'm gonna call every second now until they become annoyed.</p>

<p>When did you call? did you try calling in the in the morning? If you're having that much trouble you should try emailing them, you might have better luck than I did. I'm interested in that transfer scholarship too, so I'll try emailing them as well. I'll let you know if I get a response.</p>

<p>hey walcott i called and got some information on the transfer scholarship. You can't apply for it, but they consider every applicant who meets the requirements. Since we both seem to meet the requirements, I assume we're both under consideration. There are only 15 of these scholarships, and I was told if you did not receive any information about the scholarship by April 1st you probably weren't offered one. So we just have to wait and hope for the best.</p>

<p>Congrats to all who got accepted! I applied for Fall '09 as a transfer student and am waiting for the result. But I am worried because I am an Int'l student too so it could make things complicated. Hope I get in!</p>

<p>i got in WOOT WOOT! Even though it was a back up school im kind of considering it.
if i dont get accepted into george washington or american then its between howard and nc state....i think im leaning towards howard though</p>

<p>Good luck m from japan...and I think you should go ncstudent09, D.C. can be a great place with many opportunities.</p>

<p>I just applied Howard but I did it pretty late (like February 13). I hope I still have a chance of getting in...</p>

<p>Thanks I AM LEGEND. 15? What the heck lol. Oh my gosh I bet there's a whole bunch of people who qualify. I hope I get it. I really need that scholarship. Howard is my number one choice if I don't get that scholarship I might end choosing Pace University or Penn State. This is my second time applying and I couldn't go the first time because my parents couldn't afford all of it. I'll be devastated or p-i-s-s-e-d lol.</p>

<p>Good Luck with the scholarship too, I hope you get it. That would be amazing if we both got it lol.</p>

<p>To everyone who's still waiting to hear if they got in GOOD LUCK to you all. I know how you guys feel because I checked my mailbox everyday and was a nervous reck lol.</p>

<p>comatosis...thank you, good luck to you too! Actually, I submitted my application and other materials on Feb. 12. Maybe we get in on the same day lol</p>

<p>Well Howard's administration seems pretty slow. I have sent several mails (almost 10) to them but they responded to me ONLY ONCE. I called them too but they didn't give me enough information. In addition, my status on application summary is now "incomplete items outstanding (college transcription)" though I sent those already. I am emailing them soon about this issue but will they write me back...?</p>

<p>Yes, I've also checked the website and it says incomplete items outstanding. Hopefully that's a mistake...I'm going to try and call them and make sure they have my items...</p>

<p>Hey comatosis and m you should still call to make sure for yourself but i kind of went through the same thing I applied online and sent my stuff in it said incomplete items outstanding for about two weeks. So perhaps you have to wait two to three weeks for it show online.</p>

<p>Can you call to get help logging into your account?</p>

<p>I don't know if you already called, but if you can get through they should be able to help you out.</p>

<p>Did anyone get the financial aid package yet? Or know when it's supposed to come?</p>

<p>Hey to all! i've always wanted to post something on here...so yea i finally did lol I also got ACCEPTED into Howard a couple days ago, but it isn't my first choice. they haven't offered me any money yet either..when do they send those? does anybody know yet? has anyone been there before too? because i'm worried that it's too unsafe being in the area that it is in..</p>

<p>miss_spelman.... Congrats on getting into the mecca!!!
lemme make a stab in the dark and guess that Spelman is your first choice</p>

<p>Did you find out via mail or e-mail/Howard's portal that u got accepted?
If you found out via e-mail/Howard's portal, allow two weeks to receive your official package and about two days after that to get your scholarship offer... At least that's how mine came. </p>

<p>I've been there but it was a really short trip so I really can't give you any opinions about the campus or surrounding area... There's an open house on March 27 for admitted students so, if you can make it, check it out and make a decision for yourself.</p>

<p>Once again congrats on your acceptance and good luck in your final decision process!</p>

<p>Wait so your financial information is included in your acceptance package. I found out I got in, in December maybe they might send it now cause it was so early?</p>
