Fordham 2021 ED/EA Thread

yes, we just filed our CSS profile yesterday and was admitted EA. no merit aid info until april. i know, bummer.

They’ve been saying that for years, but apparently everybody has gotten info in February if you applied early.

@cfnv101 are you sure? i filed everything in early november before getting any decision but after november 14th. would i still get info on february first? i cant wait any longer!!

Are financial aid packages still expected by the first? Also, will we get a package before our portal updates, or will both things happen at once?

Do you have the link to the general one? Thanks!

Does anyone know around what time the financial aid information could come out today?? I’m really anxious :-S

Anyone else anxiously awaiting financial aid packages today? Daughter visited the LC campus last week and is in love, hoping for good news today.

Will they be sent by snail mail? or will they be on the portal?

@jkkciscc My D was accepted into the LC also and we are anxiously waiting for the FA package too. What she gets as far as aid is going to be the deciding factor for us. If it doesn’t work out, she’ll be going to Stony Brook University, which is a great college too. Just like your D, my daughter is in love with Fordham’s LC. It’s her dream college. Congratulations to you and your daughter and to everyone accepted!

@MCMC519 Congrats to your daughter. The package is also our deciding factor. She has a pretty awesome offer from ASU and is in the Honors College there, but it is her 2nd choice to Fordham. What is your daughters major? My D is Integrative Neuroscience. She loves NYC and falls more in love with every visit. We are from TX so it will be quite a change for her.

I just called the financial aid office. He looked up my daughter and said her package should be mailed out today and wasn’t sure if it would appear on the portal.

@jkkciscc ASU is a great college too. Congrats! My D is undecided.

S got accepted to Gabelli at RH…we are also awaiting FA package…Fordham #1 choice. Hope it is posted to portal today and good luck to everyone!!!

I just called the Fordham LC financial aid office and the lady said that they would be sent on January 10th for EA applicants.

@trent6543 do you mean Feb 10th? If it was Jan 10th, we should have gotten it already…

Oops, yes, I mean February 10th! @Steglitz90

is anyone else having trouble logging into their financial aid portals?

Did anyone receive their package yet? If so, how?

I called today & was told by FA Office that the packages were being mailed out by the end of the week, and we should receive them next week. She didn’t know when or if they would be posted online.

Received FA award today in regular mail, not yet on Portal. We are in Connecticut
