<p>[/ul]**General Comments: **
Congrats to everyone who did get in! Best of luck to those who did get deferred like me. No one really wants to admit that they got rejected or deferred but if you belong in either of those groups, just pick yourself up and start over! You still have half a year left and once you’re at the college you end up going to, you won’t be dwelling on the fact that a certain school didn’t accept you! (That is unless you’re absolutely in love, in that case, transfers!)</p>

<p>[/ul]General Comments: Surprised to get in since the new Gabelli program at Lincoln Center is supposedly rather selective. Not my first choice school but they have exactly what I want to study and the idea of being in the new business program for me seems neat. Solid safety/target school. Not sure about scholarships though. How did you guys find out if you got them?</p>

<p>Scholarships, if any, should be with the acceptance in the Portal and in the regular mail Personal Information Profile, which you may not have received yet. They will also be included in the regular mail acceptance packet, which students should receive next week.</p>

<p>Is it true that Fordham accidentally sent 2500 applicants acceptance letters? And now they have to re-apply??</p>

<p>[Psych</a>! Fordham falsely tells 2,500 kids they made it | New York Post](<a href=“http://nypost.com/2013/12/13/fail-fordham-falsely-tells-2500-kids-they-made-it/]Psych”>Psych! Fordham falsely tells 2,500 kids they made it)</p>

<p>I mean those who are rejected have to re-apply and those who were accepted have to wait for a decision in APRIL?</p>

<p>CollegeTT. Deferrals and rejections are being handled in the standard way. Please refer to the other thread(s) addressing that issue.</p>

<p>Nevermind. I was accepted, hopefully the letter is not accident.</p>
