EA 2025 Richmond

The website says Jan 29 for EA financial aid notification. Does anyone know how we will be notified - email vs portal, or will they put something in the snail mail today?

I believe they will update the portal with that information. Maybe in the afternoon so they can leave for the weekend without everybody calling to ask questions or complain!

I got nothing in the mail today. Hopefully it will be on the portal. My guess would be around 7 since that’s when they released decisions but hopefully they do it earlier. I’ve heard they have pretty solid financial aid too.

Anyone get their aid yet?

Mine just appeared on my portal

yep! just got mine in the portal

Can you tell me where in the portal? I don’t see anything in mine. Thanks!

Did you guys get an email too?

Just got our aid. Package is phenomenal actually. My son got in at Northeastern with a little better package so that is where he decided to go. But it’s definitely solid as I’ve read previously.

Can you share where do you see it in your portal? I can’t see it in mine…

Where you first time saw the acceptance letter, click it you will see the updates of financial package.

Now Richmond is definitely on the top list for my D.

Good luck everyone!

Sorry to insist. My link says the update to my application is dated Jan 22, last week. When I click that link, the same video I got last week pops up. No financial aid… Am I doing something wrong?

Okay, then your package has not arrived yet. Be patient. Last round was merit-based, the updates is adding a bunch more.

You will receive a final whole package, including merit, need, loan, etc. for sure.

When you see a new date there, you know it has arrived.

Did you file FAFSA and css and apply for need based aid?

Yes, and also have been communicating with the financial aid office as they requested more documents over the last few weeks.

Thanks! Mine only shows Jan 22nd

We didn’t get any need-based aid - only the 19k from the Presidential Scholarship. Does this seem like a mistake? or does it just mean that they don’t see me as needing aid?

But did you receive an update today? And that update shows no financial aid? Or did you not receive an update at all today?

I received an update today, and the document showed 19k total for scholarships/grants
