which page specifically after you go to the financial aid status? @Lemonade22
under financial aid, undergraduate, and requirements to see my docs. I used to only have two documents and a few were added on march 23
@Lemonade22 does the CSS or FAFSA say outstanding, or satisfied? Sometimes they need a few tax and income verifications.
Oh, then thatâs probably a good sign. I always had CSS and still have only that.
@Harvard2022maybe @illuminatilsreal My CSS and FAFSA were satisfied since November but nothing else was there until March 23rd. I wouldnât worry if there are no changes, for Amherst, my financial aid updated all the way until like the week before decision and I was waitlisted.
Ivy day decision order
- Brown
- Columbia
- Cornell
- Harvard
Harvard is my top choice, so i want to leave it for last, brown is the least thatâs gonna impact me so Iâll go for brown rejection first.
I think Iâm going to do Dartmouth and then Brown. Thereâs no good way to do it!!! They come out at the exact same time.
Going to open Princetonâs rejection firstâI expect that one the most. Then, I will do Penn and Cornell. I will save Brown for last so my hope of going there can stay alive a little longer haha
@Lemonade22 what kind of documents do you see? Are they from IDOC?

this is what is on the page now @Rescuediva
@rosaliefontaine No worriesâthis is the place to vent! It sounds like you definitely have some good choices. I know itâs so hard to listen to those comments, they can be very insensitive. I really want to say, âIn two months youâll be out of there and wonât have to listen to all the bragging anymore. And as long as you end up at a school thatâs a good fit for you and that you can be happy at, you will feel so much better because no one will care who is going where after a while.â But I know that advice by a parent has never helped any kid going through it. Chin up and best wishes as the final round of decisions come in. IMHO, the kid that prioritizes fit over prestige is the successful one.
@Lemonade22 I used to have all of those items before the site went down. Now I only have
CSS/Financial Aid PROFILE Satisfied Jan 02, 2018
Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) Satisfied Jan 02, 2018
Thank you @lemonade22. What do others see?
I just see CSS and FAFSA satisfied.
I am able to go on accept loans amd it says that i can start to accept loans after the may 1st deadline but i cannot currently see my current award information, but the page automatically goes to 2018/19 instead of the drop down menu.
@nekoatsume yeah i got that too. Everyone probably has it.
Same
@Harvard2022maybe My son said he wants to open them alone. His order will be Cornell. Columbia, Yale and Brown. Bown is his first choice. He will either be very quiet or he will be whooping it up! We all realize the slim odds of acceptance, so he/we will be fine He already has some excellent options. Best of luck to everyone here!
Im really nervous, I got rejected form Bowdoin and waitlisted at Barnard so I feel like I have no chance of being accepted in Brown or Dartmouth. I did get into William and Mary which Iâm pretty happy about, they havenât notified us about FA awards but I feel like I wonât be getting much
Just got waitlisted at Georgetown SFS. Only one left: Brown!
@DiegoDad1 itâs gonna be like 2 am in the night here. If i get accepted to any, Iâll just print out 20 copies of the acceptance letter and stick them all around the house, make it a big surprise for the fam.
