Hey. I got into Fordham at Lincoln Center. I don’t see any scholarship information. I filed the FAFSA and CSS. I claimed the my.fordham.edu account earlier than the acceptance decision though. My portal says their will be an update on Dec. 18th, but the financial aid page keeps saying error when I go to it. Any help?

@JTCREIGHTON99 – Same thing happened to my son. If you are EA, you won’t get FA award/merit award until Feb 1st. There are a few posters who did get EA merit awards (the biggies?), but most will be released on Feb. 1st. If you applied ED, definitely call & follow up on your FA/merit award status.

@IslandDadinWa - I’m not too sure but I think only those who get a Presidential Scholarship get housing paid for. There might be awards that also include housing, again, I don’t really know. I do know that the scholarships offered are for tuition only and only those that get a Presidential Scholarship get housing included in the award.
Here’s the link: http://www.fordham.edu/info/20531/apply/3752/scholarships_and_grants
Does anyone think that if you didn’t get any merit information, it’s because you’re being considered for the
Presidential Scholarship that hasn’t yet been announced? I have a 35 composite ACT and 4.0 UW GPA with lots of extracurriculars and great essays, so I was surprised when I didn’t see anything about merit in the acceptance. What do you guys think?
@nmocha567 That’s what I was thinking too- did any EA people get any merit awards, or was it just ED?
@nmocha567 @emilyco17 As only the “top 20” admitted students get offered a Presidential Scholarship, I would think they need to wait until all apps are in before determining the top 20. With stats like @nmocha567 , I could see you being in the running! 
Good luck!!
Got into Fordham Global Business Honors at Rose Hill! Applied as a finance major
@emilyco17 I think some EA applicants did get notified of merit aid in their acceptance letters. I did not, however. Also, thanks for clearing that up (and for your words of encouragement), @Steglitz90!
