Via FA link I have 10 documents listed (various dates satisfied from Dec 7, 2017 to March 26, 2018).
wow!
@Volunteerism I also have ten (the student w2 was waived because I donāt work). Hoping this is a good sign. Did your docs change on march 23rd at all?

Brown emailed me a few weeks ago asking for my parentsā 2017 tax returns because I indicated on CSS that there was a change in incomeā¦ so apparently they read my extenuating circumstances paragraph earlier this month? I posted about it a while up on this thread.

@Lemonade22
Some documents have an updated date from post submissions via IDOC. I.e. summited them in February but show March satisfied (presumably processed date). I also have a late request for additional docs (2017 related) last week which show now as March 26 satisfied thus at least is an acknowledgement of receipt and processing.
@writegirl0316 Ditto. āa change in incomeā¦ so apparently they read my extenuating circumstancesā
Brown never even requested IDOC stuff from me soā¦yay.
@bigchoices2018 If you uploaded the documents for another school, Brown can download them from IDOC without having to request them.
@lacmom71 Thanks! Although my FA portal also hasnāt changed to include more documents. Who knows, not holding my breath though!
Im an international applicant and didnt get interviewed by Brown. Is that normal???
does any of this financial aid document stuff mean anything?
@noremaco Hope not! LOL
@noremaco i hope it doesnt but i feel like it does mean something - i donāt have the 10 docs listed either
@Volunteerism Didnāt know anyone else who went through that (re: change in income!) My mom was immediately like āOk looks like that oneās an acceptanceā and I was like noā¦
can someone who received a likely share what their financial aid portals say?
@writergirl0316
I am sure we are not the only ones and FA team see these each year. At least, as applicants, we are still āin the runningā.
Why does brown allow us to search for courses if we arenāt even accepted yet makes no sense
quite a few colleges allow it? @Achen8914
Whatās the chance of deferred students getting accepted? I applied to Brown ED and got deferred. I really should have applied to Columbia ED since that is my dream school
