This question might have already been answered but will the admission decision be in an email or on the application status page?

203

@statueofliberty did she give a time?

204

I’m guessing anytime after like 2pm or 3pm… Most colleges release their decisions between 2pm and 6pm.

205

ct2626 - by application status page, do you mean under the my.fordham portal and then under applicant ?

I only have four choices - FIDN lookup, My account links, Information for prospective Fordham students and Fordham notes.

The information link returns - The Subsection is not readable please inform your administrator or check the catalina.log file for the root cause.

The account links can open financial aid where other students have posted they received their full ride offers.

I’m thinking maybe the information link has an update once it’s released ?

206
