Has anyone else not yet received their financial aid packages?

My financial aid application was not complete by the time admission decisions came out. I mailed the missing documents the following day and this was reflected on my financial aid checklist. However I still haven’t heard back from them. Is anyone else in the same boat? I don’t want to call their offices because I know this is a busy time of the year and calling won’t expedite the process. It would calm my nerves to know there’s someone out there in the same situation as me. I fear the decision will come out in late April yet I may need to appeal the offer if it does not accurately represent my Family’s financial situation. (I received a not so good offer from one of Yale’s peer schools, I can’t shake the feeling that the same thing will happen with Yale)

Plus if anyone has contacted admissions concerning the date and mode of response (e-mail/mail) Please share this information and any other relevant details.

I’m in the same boat. I heard that some people who appealed their financial aid and others who have not yet been awarded were awarded today. From what I’ve heard from someone who called a while back ago, they were told it typically takes two weeks for an update. Maybe we’ll hear back by tomorrow.

Well I haven’t heard anything yet, and Yale Recognizes Good Friday as an official Holiday so their finaid office will most likely be closed Tomorrow.

Call the financial aid office. Yes, they are busy. Yes, you may be on hold for awhile. But they are a great bunch of folk and will be happy to assist you. Good luck.

I checked a half hour after the closing time of the Financial Aid Office and nothing, but I just checked again and I’ve received my aid package! You might want to take a look. Best of luck to you!

Thank you @joindate2013 :slight_smile: I finally received my financial aid package.
