FIT Fall 2019

Hi everybody :slight_smile: I am applying as a transfer to FBM!

I have been following this thread for a long time now but havenā€™t ever contributed. I submitted my FAFSA about a week ago (pretty late I know) and my COA updated around 2-3 days after. My Initial Financial Aid Review says it is completed but my Final Financial Aid Review says ā€œwaiting to be reviewed.ā€ I saw somebody else reply in here saying their Final Financial Aid Review updated around 2 days after their Initial Financial Aid Review. Should I be worried? Anybody that has been accepted have any similar situation or input?

I am so anxious. I hope I receive my decision tomorrow!

Good luck to everybody that has not heard back, and congratulations to all who have been accepted. If you donā€™t get accepted, donā€™t give up on this dream in the future. :slight_smile:

@misung2056 Congratssss! Have you got your packet? I heard that the packet must be received by the person as it was sent by international mail. I am a bit concerned as I am currently not living in Koreaā€¦

Does anyone know if your online admission status changes on April 1st, or if itā€™s only after letters are sent out? Thanks

@hailey0605 hey! My dad texted me saying the packet arrived! Good luck!!!

Does anyone know if you get an email as well as a letter or if its just a letter?

what does is mean if my financial aid report changed from admission status in April to award notification e-mail to be sent? iā€™m so nervous

@lbcrueltyfree I wouldnā€™t be worried. Looks like my daugtherā€™s status changed to that also. And the award overview page now says she can get a loan for $XXXXXX

Just would like to get the e-mail or the packet.

my coa hasnt even updated ā€¦ still says intial financial aid review is pending to be reviewed :frowning: has anyone gotten accepted to the film & media major ?

I still havenā€™t recieved anything and I live in NY. Iā€™m so nervous. Is anyone else in a similar spot? I know I shouldnā€™t give up but I feel like itā€™s not a good sign. Hopefully they send out emails soon :confused:

@kmalin I know of only one person who got into film & media, because they were one of the presidential scholars

BTW some people in a groupchat Iā€™m in have been calling admissions and getting their decisions emailed to them! (Theyā€™re not international students)

I can now accept the terms of my award online but still no letter

Hi ! Iā€™m in New Jersey and I still havenā€™t received anything ! The wait is killing me. Does anyone know if they send emails before the actual package?

Just spoke to admissions and they informed me that I would not be getting an e-mail but a letter. I live on Long Island and admissions said a letter should come today or tomorrow.

Admissions also says that letters are being sent out in waves, so be patients.

i got accepted to another suny school and my coa changed right after submitting my fafsa so kinda losing hope for FIT haha but congrats to everyone who has gotten accepted so far!!

I got my acceptance letter emailed to me just now! I started hysterically crying I was so happy, I only applied to FIT.

congrats

how did you get it emailed?
