<p>I'm from California and haven't received the financial aid estimate letter yet. Anyone else not receive it?</p>
<p>We have not gotten here in Connecticut either, I called a couple of days ago, and they said they were behind and we should have it either the first or second week of january.</p>
<p>Which is ridiculous because if they dont offer you a realistic amount, then you shouldnt have to accept their offer of admission yet.</p>
<p>are you serious? On my letter it says the nonrefundable deposit has to be returned within 3 weeks, which is Jan 1 for me, but I have no idea what my estimate is going to be…</p>
<p>Exactly. Its dumb.
For me, they expect like 35k a year in EFC… not going to happen so I think I’m going to have to decline their ED offer because I cannot pay. Its impossible.</p>
<p>word. my dad lost his job a week before i got accepted. we sent in some forms to get the financial aid reevaluated, but it won’t come for almost a month. what are we supposed to do about sending in our offers? my going there really depends on whether or not i get better / more financial aid.</p>
<p>Same here. I thought they’d be more understanding of our financial situation… but, nope… they werent…</p>
<p>@college9666 are you going to continue applying for other colleges before you receive your financial aid package? I want to call in to ask but according to nyu’s forum they’re closed until Jan 3rd.</p>
<p>If you have a really important message, you can call them and they will respond next week.</p>
<p>well, i already got financial aid with my acceptance, but because my dad just lost his job we’re looking for more (i got 12,500 a year and the rest is basically loans). they said there was something special that we could do so we filled out some forms, but i don’t know if it will help much… i guess i’ll just have to wait and see.</p>
<p>oh and i already applied to my other colleges when i sent in my ED application to NYU, so i think im fine. (you didn’t hear it from me, but if you’re not 100% sure you can pay for NYU, apply to to your other colleges (; )</p>
<p>Yes, but doesnt NYU MAKE you withdrawl from your other schools when you turn in your deposit?</p>
