Davidson College RD Class of 2020

Does Davidson have a facebook group or something for accepted students?

My son received his financial aide award this morning. We were very pleased. Thank you Davidson!

We got our aid award as well and are thrilled! So excited about Davidson!

Accepted!!! So thrilled, it’s probably my #1, but idk about financial aid yet. I can’t find any info at all about it! Help?
Congrats to all that made it, and good luck for all waitlisted people!

@collegebound1516 Congrats on your acceptance. My son received an email from Davidson on March 21st explaining how to access his award. Did you meet the deadlines for financial aid? If not, they may still be working on your package.

Accepted, 36 ACT, 3.9 GPA UW (5.17 weighted), North Carolina high school. :smiley:
I’m hoping things go well for those rejected or on the waitlist. I feel pretty fortunate for my situation.

Go Wildcats

Go Wildcats

So turns out my parents have submitted all FA stuff but one form because they physically can’t complete it legally until they have this specific info that is released april 4th or something so I’ll be lucky to get any aid at all at this rate I’m so so bummed

General Comments:
College process is tough.

Ok can someone tell me where the financial aid award is posted within the portal? My admissions counselor told me that he finally posted it, but I can’t for the life of me find it. Am I blind??

Check your email. I got a separate email from the Director of Financial Aid pointing to to a link with a User ID and instructions on how to review your aid. I also got the same info via snail mail a few days later. Hope this helps!
