Did anyone get their financial aid package yet??
I think FA packages for transfers would be rolled out starting middle of April. Good Luck!
@shnj201 I think they dont send them out until June, that is what I read somewhere. I think they wait until the incoming freshmen and current students are situated because transfer students seem to get the bottom of the barrel at most schools. Or maybe they are just waiting until they finish reviewing all of the transfer applications who knows?!
The website says, application deadline is June 1 (https://www.fordham.edu/info/23870/the_transfer_application_process). I would think that if they have your completed application and financial information, they would send out the aid package earlier. I would make sure to have completed all their requests for additional FA information, grades, transcripts etc and the package would come earlier than expected.
Has anyone received their aid package yet??? I was accepted over a month ago and still haven’t gotten mine.
Do they send an acceptance letter by mail or email?
Also, how long did it take?
I submitted my application Feb 20th and got accepted March 17th. I received an email early that morning saying there was a change to my application status on the portal.
@CollegeGuruEast @jojowetzz thanks!
Is anyone going to Fordham for sure? I’ll be attending Fordham College at Lincoln Center, most likely. Still waiting on this FA package.
Accepted to Rose Hill, College GPA 3.2 HS GPA: 3.9 strong recommendations, strong essay
@shnj201 I really want to! I just can’t commit until I know what my aid package looks like
@jacobtylamb it kinda sucks that they don’t give transfers scholarships! Hopefully we get our aid packages by mid May latest. I really want to know if I’ll be attending or not!
@shnj201 Hopefully we get them next week! I was also accepted to The New School (with very generous aid) and I have to let them know by May 1st 
@Jacobtylamb are you transferring from nearby?
@shnj201 Technically, yes. I’m from Texas where I attended community college but in January I transferred to Union College in upstate NY. I was miserable there so as soon as the term was over in March, I moved to the city.
@jacobtylamb whoa, my best friend just transferred from Union College to BU! Hope all goes well with your aid, fingers crossed for all of us!
I’ll post my instagram in case anyone would like to get to know each other and meet up before the fall. @sara_hansali 
Where on Fordham’s website does it say that they don’t give transfers scholarships? I can’t find anything about that.
@gothgirl if you go to the transfer page, and click on “after submission of the application” (or something like that) there’s a tab that says scholarships, you should be able to find it there
@shnj201 Thanks I found it! Has Fordham been known to give merit aid to transfers even though it says they can’t?
@gothgirl I have no idea. I read on another thread that a student was offered a scholarship despite Fordham’s policy… so not really sure.
