<p>I applied RD and am on the East Coast (pretty close to NYC).</p>
<p>Got it. Thanks</p>

<p>I just pulled out the package from last year and the letters from Admissions and FA are both dated April 1st but the postmark is March 26th. They were sent together.</p>

<p>I have heard that EA FA packages are finalized at the same time as RD packages and I have also heard of people who were awarded more at that time. If you found out about the Jogues online then wait and see what happens when you get the package in the mail. Congrats to your D on the acceptance and scholarship! </p>
<p>@SaintSaens</p>
<p>Congratulations! I hope that you will come to the Spring Preview! </p>
<p>Good luck everyone!!! :)</p>
<p>I got accepted to Fordham University!!! :D</p>
<p>Yesterday, my fordham log-in had an update on the ‘awards’ tab, and I called the college that same day but they did not tell me if I was accepted or not.</p>
<p>I received the acceptance letter and financial aid package today.</p>
<p>sandkmom - thanks so much! I suppose we should be getting a final ltr soon. If not we will ask at the Spring Preview</p>
<p>Congrats to cutelilazn and SaintSaens!</p>
<p>Thanks guys. I just noticed that my acceptance letter has the date April 1 on it. I guess the admissions committee just felt like sending them early.</p>

<p>You will have the opportunity to meet with a FA counselor at the Spring Preview and I think it is an opportunity that should not be missed! We went through all our concerns about my S’s package. We did not appeal our package, we were actually happy with it, but going through and getting answers was important to us given we were new to it all. </p>
<p>We handed in the Enrollment Deposit that day! In fact, after hearing Fr. McShane speak my S said he’d have signed up for the Jesuits, too, if they were taking applications! :D</p>
<p>I also got my acceptance in the mail today (CT). Looks like some were sent out early, you don’t have so much waiting left!</p>
<p>Good luck =D</p>
<p>sandkmom - definitely will take your advice and speak with a financial aid counselor. I have heard wonderful things about Fr. McShane’s address and look forward to hearing in person!</p>
<p>sandkmom
Thanks for your advice! We’ll wait and see.</p>
<p>I haven’t received my acceptance letter but my awards are up on the portal. Not nearly enough, but I’m glad to be accepted.</p>
<p>Can someone explain where to find the awards? In the Financial Aid box it doesn’t give any info; takes me to another screen with links to fafsa et al, but no award.</p>
<p>how much are the Jogues award?</p>
<p>The Jogues is merit aid so it varies depending on need. My D got$7000</p>
<p>thanks azmomm - when did you find out about the $$? I looked on the website and it says my son recevied a Joques award but there is no dollar amount. Thanks</p>
<p>No tabs for me to click in myfordham F/A so, I guess I was rejected. It likely makes my decision to accept Bings’ offer since I’d need BIG bucks to attend Fordham.</p>
<p>I forgot my Fordham password and ID number, so I won’t be much help with the portal stuff. </p>
<p>But I got my entire acceptance letter and financial aid package today in the mail. I live in NJ so maybe it just got here fast, but it means they sent it out already</p>
<p>I looked at my online deal last night (like five minutes after I realized realized it existed?), and saw all this financial aid stuff, and then I got the big envelope today, which was honestly my first big one, cuz the other acceptance I got was from a state school, and they’re cheap. </p>
<p>anyway, I’m up in Vermont, and the financial info online wasn’t any different from the info I received in the acceptance package</p>
<p>Again, they are still updating all of this online. You really can’t be sure that what is online is your final package until you receive it in the mail. And I wouldn’t take the lack of FA info online to be a rejection at this point. Just wait for the mail…it is very likely on its way!</p>
<p>And stage4survivor, my H and I are Bing alums and went back last year to visit with my S. You can get a very good education for a very good price! Good luck! But wait to hear from Fordham before you make your decision! :)</p>
<p>How do you set up the online portal? I neve got any information about that</p>
