@NovaMom93 @proudmom2023 I thought I should update. I received an automated email today from CWRU about making sure my financial aid forms were in to ensure an EA decision. It seems like the portal update with Canvas (and contacting about financial aid) was not a shoo in for what the admissions decision was. It turns out all FA files are needed before your application is even considered complete for review, even if you have everything else in.
@equationlover yes - I read the email again, and if you indicated on your application that you intend to apply for need-based financial aid, you MUST fill out the forms or the application will not be complete (and subsequently not read by admissions).
In other news, D noticed that her portal changed with now a lovely photo of students forming “CWRU” and a link to contact her admissions rep. sigh a long wait…
My son’s changed to that photo after we submitted everything too @NovaMom93 fingers crossed for us and our kids!
Thanks @proudmom2023.
