Fordham 2018 Transfer

did anyone hear from financial aid?

@mattm12334 Not yet, I have access to the portal but there are no updates for the aid year. I’m hoping they contact us in the next week or so, but one of us should probably ask.

Just called. They said “by December 1st” for transfer students for spring semester

Did you guys get an email when the decision was up?

@mattm12334 I heard the same from them too, it seems like kinda a long time to wait for our fin-aid packages. I hope it comes sooner than late November

@a20171 Yes, it tells you that there is an update to your portal.

I’m still waiting!!! :frowning:

I got accepted as a sophomore transfer to the Gabelli School of Business-Rose Hill for Spring 2018

Stats:
HS: 3.5 GPA
College GPA:: 3.8
-meaningful ec’s
-dean’s list
-from California
-transferring from another private university

@a13shine when did you submit your app? Congrats btw!!

When you guys log into the fin aid portal, are you only seeing the FAFSA as submitted and not the CSS under the documents tab? I’m worried that they might not have received my CSS, perhaps they haven’t processed anyones?

im seeing both @Spdomx

@mattm12334 Thanks, I just emailed them to get it sorted out.

Did anyone else get their preliminary transfer credit report? I’m gonna ask when we actually get a definitive answer on what classes transfer on Monday.

Hey guys! I was recently accepted as a sophomore Transfer for the spring! Does anyone know how many transfers come into Fordham in the spring? I’m trying to decide if I want to wait for the fall or not

@Spdomx i haven’t received Transfer credit yet… did we have to send anything in for that or do they do it just based on our transcripts?

Accepted!! Here are my stats!!
Also how long after did y’all get financial aid packages?
Current University: Pace (as an acting major)
Current GPA: 3.8
SATs: Have 33 credits so not sending them
HS GPA: 2.82 (low I know but I went to an IB school so hopefully they’ll see that)
EC: Wag Walker, Churchwork and volunteering, Acted in over 10 plays in high school, Co-Founded the Film Club at my high school, Cross-Country Runner
Pretty good personal statement
Great letter of recommendation from mentor

Best of luck to everyone!

@Em2180 I emailed the dean of transfers (I think it might have been listed in the acceptance letter), then they sent me a preliminary transfer credit report based off of the transcripts is sent in for admission.

@actorguy Congrats! I still haven’t gotten any financial aid information, they told us that they would send packages out around the 1st of December.

@Em2180 I don’t think you can defer transfer admission

I called fordham yesterday and they said decisions are only released on fridays and they’re not releasing this friday for all of us still waiting!!

/Ya does anyone know if you can defer transfer admission?

You can’t, @mattm12334 but you can reapply. I have no idea how likely they are to accept you again.

@actorguy I submitted the app with all of the material by Oct 27 and received my admission decision by Nov. 5th

Anyone hear back from financial aid yet?
