You may be right. See this link showing Brown uses IDOC. https://profile.collegeboard.org/profile/ppi/participatingInstitutions.aspx
So if we donāt have any other documents in the financial aid portal checklist besides CSS/FAFSA, can we assume that weāre rejected? Iām from a high income family but the NPC states that I should get like 7k in scholarships
@lemonade1 @Volunteerism Iām worried now bc my financial aid portal only shows css profile and fafsa, but for those that have 10 things, do you have any special fa situations, like a late app for it or extra verification steps? If you submitted like normal and have all those and the rest of us donātā¦ it could be a sign about admissions status, couldnāt it?
Just realized i linked the wrong lemonade, so @Lemonade22 and also @writergirl0316 about the above post.
(couldnāt edit it for some reason)
@applicant1313 hey, I have a normal FA situation (2 parent not divorced) FA hints are not perfect. For example, for amherst I thought it was a good sign that my forms were updated a week before, but I was waitlisted.
There are schools on the IDOC link above that I was accepted to that didnāt ask for the IDOC documents and for whom my FA list didnāt change so who knowsā¦Iāll report back on Wednesday for future applicants.
I mean the whole 10 document thing could mean acceptance but then again financial aid office is separate from admission so idk
@applicant1313
Out of the 10 FA docs I have listed only 2 are associated to a specifical circumstance (2017 tax and w2) thus in any case I would have had 8.
@myskoolcool : āOf those deferred from early decision, 5.4 percent were admitted regular decision.ā See http://talk.qa.collegeconfidential.com/discussion/comment/21335988/#Comment_21335988
To ALL: Actually last year ā Sixty-four percent of admitted students intend to apply for financial aid. Only 43% of matriculated students actually receive any kind of financial aids. Admission Office has access to your financial data and they can decide if you actually need aids to attend. In the last minute, if money is running low, things can change. This year loan is eliminated.
See https://news.brown.edu/articles/2017/03/admitted and https://news.brown.edu/articles/2017/09/firstyear
Good lucks to everyone.
Slightly unrelated but at what time are all of the ivys releasing their decisions? Is it all at 7pm?
Yes, to my knowledge.
@Achen8914 I canāt see where you can search for courses. Is it in your portal?
I doubt it. Iām from an extremly low income family and my schools always need extra information for my documents. However, northwestern only needed my CSS and my FAFSA so I was sure I got rejected. . . but I was accepted! Different schools need different things. Also, donāt forget those offices are completly different. Most scholarships are handled by admissions (merit based). Need-based would be from financial aid.
Yh u gotta go to the student tabs and click on the course@brown link @Ashtash
@pz1818 I got denied from Georgetown SFS after EA deferral. Iām not feeling so hopeful any longer. Good luck!!
@Harvard2022maybe
I thought you mentioned somewhere you already got in Harvard. Congrats!! If you donāt mind, may I ask which state are you from? What other schools have you got in? I feel you will get admitted to whatever the school you have applied. (You seem to have mentioned in some post you applied to 12 schools)
@apdns19 Brown is my number one, I applied ED. Iāll find out if I regret not applying EA to Georgetown on Wednesday. Waitlist at SFS literally has a 0% acceptance rate.
@pz1818 This is definitely such a bummer. Iām not excited about anything yet and my last 3 are going to be tough. Iām sure you will end up someplace great.
@apdns19 At this point the University of Michigan seems like the most likely optionā¦talk about two opposite schools. Where are you looking if Brown doesnāt work out?
Ours says CSS is missing. Crap. I have to look into that. But, they havenāt asked for it, and that might be a bad sign
