Dartmouth College Transfer Applicants 2018

@kb199977 Yeah lol, I’m super uncreative with usernames and stuff so that’s what I came up with on a whim

@SmartJarhead thats awesome lmao, thank you for your service, I really hope you get in!

@kb199977 Thank you, you as well!

Has everyones financial aid tab updated? I know in past years if they had processed your financial aid that was an alleged marker of acceptance or waitlist placement. Not saying it means anything, but Iʻm just curious! :slight_smile:

@paulele24 wow, that’s so cool that yours has updated!

Mine didn’t change… I am kinda getting anxious now.

I really hope his did change, because if it didn’t that was a really cruel post to write!

What do you mean by change tho like what is it that changes? @paulele24

If your financial aid updates, it is a sign you’re getting accepted. Mine hasn’t updated either.

I’m so discouraged now.

But updates with what? Because i submitted all my stuff late February so it’s all been checked off since March and in past threads sometimes people get a financial aid tab really late in the process but it doesn’t mean anything.

Yeah I agree, mine has been checked off since the middle of February I don’t think it means anything.

Mine has been checked off since March, but it hasn’t been “completed” like people in past threads described before they got accepted. I don’t even know what that looks like.

What “change” is this exactly? Was it just some things checked off? All of my financial aid documents have been checked off for over a month now. No mentions of “completed” anywhere (like on Princeton’s portal, for example), it just has “(check) received” on all the documents.

But if everything is checked off is it not completed? @IndirectProofs

What I’m saying is that people who have gotten accepted have had changes to their FA a few days before, like it was processed or something. I don’t know the details, I’m just really hoping that I’ll still get accepted, and kind of discouraged now.

EVERYONE CALM DOWN, it is a MYTH that if your financial aid changes or gets updated, that you are accepted. Trust me. I got into UCLA a few days ago and my financial aid didn’t update, the admissions officers also said it was a myth. calm down.

Congrats on UCLA! @kb199977

@overthinking98 thanks so much!

No no! Oh gosh guys Iʻm really sorry for the confusion and the feelings of discouragement that clearly were caused!!

again: Iʻm SO SORRY PLEASE DONʻT FEEL DISCOURAGED! especially @IndirectProofs and @“FutureIbanker/hfmanager” :-S

I had been reading through past CC threads on Dartmouth transfers and on page 3 of 2015ʻs thread was where this came up. In that thread apparently @bumblebees FA ʻupdatedʻ and they were eventually accepted! Thatʻs what I was referencing! instead of “everybodyʻs” I should have said “anybodyʻs”, so as not to freak people out. English is hard. Iʻll try edit it out right now to change that word. Sorry again I caused this confusion and stress.

I did not want the stress I may have just caused you! Iʻm so sorry ;_;
