im super nervous. i just got a call from fordham saying that there was a mistake in my fafsa, but i didn’t hear anything from barnard. does this mean they rejected my application and aren’t looking into it any further? im scared 
y’all I’m so nervous. I almost 100% know it’s going to be a deferral. My additional section talks about health and missing school first semester due to postponement of surgeries bc COVID-19. Then my grades don’t come out till after, so they waived them.
So the chances they defer me only to see me progress report concerning first semester is highhh. Previous 3 year’s have been straight A’s. My dumb self shouldn’t even have mentioned health.
Barnard’s financial aid department and admissions office is separate. I don’t think it’ll have an impact. Other than that, I wish you good luck!

i wouldn’t worry! I think if you have amazing grades for every other year of high school they have to be understanding. It’s absolutely not your fault that you had to miss first semester and such. Also i’m sure the rest of your application was great which is also important! I believe in you :))))

I’ve basically had radio silence from them too except when they got back to me about financial aid questions. I wouldn’t worry about it (unless maybe I should be worried? lol) wishing you luck!!
so glad it wasn’t today or tomorrow! Tomorrow IB Final Extended Essays are due and we didn’t need the distraction-- whether positive or negative! Good luck everyone.

For acceptances, you get an a physical letter as part of the welcome package a few days later. If not accepted, there is no physical letter.
