<p>Hey guys if it says my estimated cost is that the same thing? Its full sticker price so I didn’t get any FA so it says no awards</p>
<p>@biguk997 i think you clicked on “FA status” instead of Award>Award by Aid Year>Award Overview.</p>
<p>Wait it says expected enrollment status unknown too</p>
<p>probably rejected :/</p>
<p>Ah, not here to burst any bubbles, but I think that’s just the calculated financial aid required, and not indicative of the decision.</p>
<p>@smurfinator23 no prob :)</p>
<p>@biguk997 =O i have no idea what that means by the way. could it be possible that they precalculate every applicant’s EFC?</p>
<p>Then why are all the fields 0 for my case, including the estimated cost of attendance? </p>
<p>Did any of you submit the ISFAA in lieu of the CSS and still got that update?</p>
<p>@revisiter that’s what i think too! last year, rejected/waitlisted applicants received emails whereas accepted applicants received their letters through the mail. Fingers crossed to not receive an email from Colgate today :)</p>
<p>@vivaciousakrish I did.</p>
<p>ya Revisiter, but I see only 0s and I guess it means they didn’t even care about calculating rejections’ financial aid</p>
<p>I’m hoping that the fact that they are calling it an “Award” and not just estimated contribution or projected aid means that we were accepted.</p>
<p>This is the official message received from the school in reply to my question.</p>
<p>“All decisions will be released this week in a variety of manners (mail, express mail, FedEx, e-mail) depending on where a student lives and the decision. We anticipate all students will receive a decision before the end of the month.”</p>
<p>we have to wait and see</p>
<p>@Herc: did you use CSS?</p>
<p>I have expected family cont. of 12K. our annual income is 11K. I think there must be a mistake. Anyway, can I bargain to decrease family cont. if I get accepted?</p>
<p>@Revisiter no, I sent the ISFAA</p>
<p>Yep, then that aid overview thingy pretty much reflects your decision. :)</p>
<p>Do not panic guys. I’m guessing it’s only a calculation for those who submitted CSS.</p>
<p>I submitted ISFAA, but @revisiter might be right. Maybe they aren’t done calculating EFC for those who submitted the ISFAA.</p>
<p>cali2016 submitted ISFAA. I was hoping that the CSS thing was the cause behind it, but guessss all hope is lost now.</p>
<p>Yeah I just called the admissions office and they said that its not an indicator
They r sending out all decisions by the end of the week</p>
