To everyone who applied for financial aid,</p>

<p>I don't believe that my fin. aid application is complete; my mom has yet to put in the non-custodial profile and some other stuff (she told me that she doesn't think I have a chance and she's not bothering with it unless I actually get in, ha). I haven't received any notice from them, however, telling me that I need to get in my forms. Could this point towards rejection? Has anyone been reminded to complete their financial aid application?

Last year Princeton and Harvard did not notify me of missing forms despite the fact that I <em>knew</em> some financial aid forsm were missing.
I was rejected at both colleges. But probably doesn't mean anything.</p>

<p>in my case, when i applied to swarthmore, i was also missing some (if not all) of my fin.aid. forms, and i was thinking they must have rejected me since they haven't asked for them. but then i did get in and they just said in my acceptance packet that i said i wanted financial aid and to send it to them just then. it all worked out fine, so i definitely wouldn't assume they rejected you just because they haven't asked for the missing forms.
good luck!</p>

148

149

<p>any new info on harvard decisions? has anyone heard anything yet?</p>

150

<p>nope- was thinking of calling but I think it'll be futile- I guess they've prolly made most of their decisions by now tho- I think we shud all bombard the adm. office with fone calls by monday if we don't get e-mails monday morning-</p>

151

<p>haha--sounds like a plan!</p>

<p>bumpity: did you also apply to brown?</p>

152

<p>nope! glad I didn't- given that they've become "harvard ridiculous!"</p>

153

<p>very true. damn. i wish one of us had the balls to call the admissions office... haha!</p>

154

<p>I called transfer admissions around noon today. They did not answer (wwwooooaaaa!!!) so I suspect some shennanigans and tomfoolery therein. I need to find out early next week - I'm doing summer housing, financial aid, summer classes start, and I'm going NUTS!!!</p>

155

<p>what hapens on the 15th for harvard- is that when decisions are mailed or is that when we get our e-mails?</p>

156

<p>Brian-seeing as it was noon when you called, perhaps they were at lunch? ...hopefully there are no shenanigans.</p>

157

<p>i just called now and like brian said, they didn't answer- perhaps they are putting up our decisons or packaging the letters or sth?</p>

158

<p>is it possible to get rejected from yale and get accepted to harvard? My yale rejection has permanently thrown me into an insurmountable abyss of depression-----------------------(if that makes sense)</p>

159

<p>yes....that happened to my friend whos at harvard. and my friends at yale were all rejected by harvard.</p>

<p>I wish my self confidence cud find solace in that-</p>
