financial aid email?

<p>hi. so a few days ago i got an email from tufts indicating that there were a few items missing from my financial aid application. i find this really peculiar because...
a. at this point they probably have already a good indication as to who they will accept/deny
b. if i was rejected, why would they ask for these items?
am i being too optimistic? is this a good sign? gaaahhhhhh im freaking out. march 30 cannot come any sooner!!</p>

<p>Similar thing happened with me for Brandeis. I would presume u got in but cant be too sure</p>

<p>thanks! i see you applied too. best of luck! :slight_smile: this is going to be the longest week of my life… Sorry to vent to you but I’ve been pretty emotionally unstable this week. Last night i found out i got waitlisted at villanova. but i got into bc which is kind of strange because virtually everyone who applies to nova with a 2100+ gets in… i am trying to let it not get to me but its kind of freaking me out. whatever. just have to wait until march 30th i guess. :/</p>

<p>While it’s definitely not a bad sign, I know that, in most universities, financial aid is a separate process from admissions. I’m not sure about Tufts University, but I know that for a different college where I got rejected, they had drafted up a financial aid policy for me anyway. Also, it might be a better sign if it was someone from Financial Aid who sent it, rather than an automatic notification. Was it?</p>

<p>sorry to burst the bubble. See Dan’s response here:</p>

<p>Well my case was special with Brandeis. They were personally emailing me 2 days before they posted decision. Didn’t finish it until one day before. They aren’t need blind I think so it was pretty obvious</p>
