<p>Just got this email today... I'm wondering if its a sign that I was accepted or not as I don't think they would ask me for more financial aid documents unless they were making a financial aid package for me, especially this late in the game. Any ideas? Thanks.</p>

<p>I JUST spoke to the USC financial aid office (literally 2 minutes ago) regarding the status of one of my financial aid documents, and the woman I spoke with told me that admissions and financial aid are seperate; financial aid packages are assembled for everyone, then mailed to those who are admitted. </p>

<p>This is kind of a bummer, and I know my parents really are not happy with having to send so much personal information to a school to which I haven’t even been admitted, but I suppose there’s still hope.</p>

<p>Best of luck!</p>

<p>Oh no kidding. That sounds like a lot of unnecessary work for the financial aid office, haha.</p>

<p>Good luck to you too!</p>

<p>My son got a request for tax forms on February 27th…</p>

6

<p>Well I just got the email today.</p>

<p>It appears from another thread that Prodigy has been accepted…maybe there is something to the late FA requests = admission?</p>

8

<p>Yeah I was thinking about this after I was told of my acceptance. Same deal happened with Occidental College where I was also accepted.</p>

<p>did the email have this part included?
PROSPECTIVE STUDENTS, PLEASE NOTE: This notice is not an indicator of an admission decision. Financial aid information is gathered and reviewed for all financial aid applicants, regardless of admission status.</p>

<p>@jfuentes: My email DID NOt include that, just indicated that I had been “selected” to submit additional information.</p>

11

<p>Oh okay. Mine said that, but that was before the deadline. (February 7th)</p>

<p>I got the same message 1 week ago, without the:</p>

<p>“PROSPECTIVE STUDENTS, PLEASE NOTE: This notice is not an indicator of an admission decision. Financial aid information is gathered and reviewed for all financial aid applicants, regardless of admission status”</p>

<p>part. So what’s the verdict- does it mean I’m accepted?</p>

13

<p>Just wanted to update this for next years applicants, if anyone’s interested. I receieved a request for A LOT of additional info, and was accepted today! Maybe there’s something to it! :)</p>

14

<p>I really want to say “Don’t flatter yourself,” because every applicant should have submitted that document, but who knows?</p>

15

<p>I also wanted to update this for next year’s applicants - My daughter got a very late request for additional financial aid information (the week before decisions went out) and was accepted today at the Annenberg School of Communications. So a very late request for additional financial aid documents, may be an indication of acceptance.</p>

<p>I didn’t get a mid-year report request form nor did I get any additional financial aid requests…but I got in</p>
