Anyone heard back recently? My application has been complete and submitted for almost six weeks now and I haven’t been told anything yet
@AurumReichert Me neither. I am expecting tomorrow since all the decisions for past months have been made on Wednesday. I am literally delaying all my future plans now.
@AurumReichert @SMSNYAL Yep, I haven’t heard back for around 5 weeks
@SMSNYAL
@bobsthename
Well I hope both of you get good news today. Fingers crossed
Anyone hear anything? Nothing on my end.
I didn’t get a decision, but there appears a new red x in the status of “final transcript” for my current institution in my portal.
Is it normal to have what seems to be a sheet of paper instead of a tick mark or a red x as the status for my GS required essay? I uploaded it before the deadline. Everything else has a green tick mark, I do not know why this one is different
@bluethinker that’s normal, no worries dude.
@SMSNYAL
I believe that they went through checking for spring grades today, because they just updated my current institution grades date to today’s date even though I uploaded unofficial copies and sent official copies about two weeks ago
Were you asked for copies of final grades? The transcripts I sent in were before semester was over, so they just saw what I was taking.
@SMSNYAL @AurumReichert No new red “X” for me nor updated institution grades. Could it be because I’m active duty military (and hence long graduated from high school)? Regardless, hoping these signs bode well for you both. Do you suppose we will hear back soon?
@AurumReichert @mamabear336 I actually got a decision few hours ago around 7pm. They now require me to submit final transcript for a confirmation and the red x happens to appear few hours before I got the decision letter. I did an email interview three weeks ago so I knew the decision was coming whenever they have a committee meeting. I really hope you guys the best!
@bobsthename
If you indicated that you’re currently taking classes then they will ask for a final transcript. If you aren’t taking classes now and haven’t discharged yet they likely won’t ask for anything else. Good luck with your decision, I get my DD214 tomorrow!
For those of you guys and gals that are literally getting out as you get your acceptances, do yourself a favor and sign up for VA Healthcare ASAP once you have your DD214 in hand. Once you have it, you can waive the $3K+ per year student health insurance (which is mandatory unless you have othet sufficient insurance, ie. VA Healthcare) which will help keep your out of pocket expenses down since the GI Bill + YRP only covers about $44K per year. The deadline to waive the student health insurance plan is June 30th, and you need to be fully enrolled in VA healthcare BEFORE you can waive it.
@Kamber
This is great advice, thank you
I have a question. Is there anything to know or prepare before going to APS? Thank you
@SMSNYAL nope, they give you an avalanche of information and the next steps you need to take.
Is it likely to receive an update on weekends? I applied RD and the anxiety just increases
@bluethinker
I believe most notifications come on Wednesdays, but I don’t have enough information to say whether or not a decision could come on any other day of the week
This can be a silly question, but what are the odds that I don’t get a housing (or maybe wait-listed) which I applied through portal? and does anybody know when they usually give out the decisions?
