<p>pretty self-explanatory...have all of you already received financial aid? if so, when?</p>
<p>no, they never made my packet. got it fixed though</p>
<p>still have not received- but CM does say up front they want to know about other aid awards, so we plan on talking to them about $$ awarded from other schools</p>
<p>I got my aid but I got waitlisted to CIT. How does that work? o.0</p>
<p>I was accepted first wave and still have not received financial aid offer yet. Should I call them up?</p>
<p>ED, No financial aid. I guess my father talked to them, and they mentioned it being up in the “Where am I in the Process?” by April 5th.</p>
<p>Mine was only sent out yesterday according to the Where Am I in the Process.</p>
<p>still have not received any notification about financial aid. It has a blank next to my parent’s w-2s in “where am i in the process”. I called the finaid office a couple of weeks ago (because i am POSITIVE that my parents finaid forms were sent) and she told me that they’ve just been really busy and have probably not had time to check it off. Do you think that is still the case? or should i be more worried?</p>
<p>Most certainly.</p>
<p>mine reported that the “Financial aid eligibility letter” was sent today. What does that mean? Is this my award letter or a letter saying that I’m missing documents?</p>
<p>lzhang, D’s reported the same. It is your award letter. i called FA yesterday and they said FA awards would be sent out by the middle of next week. This award will make or break D’s decision of whether or not she will attend CMU.</p>
<p>i still havent received mine either =(</p>
<p>CMU sent me a “Financial Aid Eligibility Letter” yesterday-- i should be getting it this week. However, I priority mailed my tax return/w-2 form and they are suppose to receive it Tuesday (in 2 days). I hope the FA letter they’re sending me ISN’T telling me how much i’m getting… because that means they made a decision without the documents i’m providing them. What sucks even more is that my priority mail I sent them also has a letter explaining how my dad lost his job (my mom doesn’t work) this year. </p>
<p>So for those of you who’ve gotten financial aid, is the FA eligibility letter the FA package? I didn’t think CMU would make a decision without the stuff I sent… but as I’ve learned in CMU’s application process, anything can happen.</p>
<p>We got the letter around April 1 that said “no” to aid.</p>
<p>I was accepted first wave and got mine about a week after it was sent here in Iowa. That was around April 1, I think. I actually got my financial aid letter before the fat packet…</p>
<p>I still have not received mine and I turned everything in well before the deadlines.</p>
<p>D’s finaid package was just posted online this morning, and boy, were they unexpectedly generous!</p>
<p>waitlists will receive a fin aid package as well, right?</p>
<p>Ren, our friend’s son was WL last year and got a very good fin aid package.</p>
<p>^ i meant that while we(waitlisters) wait, we get a FA package too right? which will be effective in case we are admitted later on?</p>
