FIT applicants for fall 2018

Hi everyone! I just found out about this forum/thread 20 minutes ago. I am so relived that there’s a place online where we can chat. My name is Alyssa, I’m 20, been out of high school for almost 3 years now. I applied for an AAS in Illustration (initially Fine Arts but I changed my mind early in the application process). My gpa is low because I did awful in my first high school, and my second high school that I started attending in Junior year doesn’t have gpa’s (and I did amazingly there… oh well, hopefully they’ll take into account that I passed every class in that school), my essays were great, and my portfolio is very, very strong if I say so myself. So it’s pretty hit or miss for me, hopefully they see that the school I did so bad at, I haven’t attended in 5 years! I’m a very skilled painter and illustrator, I’m very proud of my portfolio (and glad that I didn’t apply straight out of high school personally, as I’m not sure if my skills were AS good 3 years ago) anyway yeah! I’m just anxiously waiting and the anticipation is killing me! If we all get accepted, let’s be friends!

Hi All! We were having trouble logging in as well. Here are the directions for the “back-way” in. Hope this helps!

Is anyone else’s final financial review checked off? I hope this is a good sign! (it’s number 4 in the portal)

You @val1999 are the first one to post that the final financial review is checked off. Please post as soon as you get your letter. Good luck!

@val1999 mine is too!

@val1999 and @atlgirl21 mine was checked off earlier this week too! Hoping that means good things because why would they review it if we were denied. Fingers crossed.

where do you guys live @val1999, @Dolly28 and @atlgirl21???

Mine’s checked off as well! I’m from Baltimore, Maryland. Does your guys also say “Award available pending admission”?

All of my financial aid is checked off and the last one says “award pending admission” hope that’s a good sign! I applied for FBM, and I’m from Connecticut! Good luck all!

@Babs007 New Jersey!

@shakuton Mine says that as well

@Babs007 Long Island!

You guys are probably going to be accepted as outstanding applicants!! Good luck everyone! PS Theres a Facebook group for FIT 2022, you guys should all join that also

I probably should’ve applied for financial aid lol
I’m really left in the dark at any indication if i’m going to be accepted.

Welp, all we can do is wait. 10 more days everyone!

I live in Boston. My COA has been available for quite some time too now. Does anyone know what it means if your final financial aid step is reviewed? I’m so anxious.

Ugh, my step 3 is still an orange exclamation point and there’s nothing for my final financial aid review. I applied late, hopefully that’s why

@val1999 my final financial review is checked off too!

does anyone else have up to final financial review checked off?

When did you guys see that change?
