can anyone attest to how good Holy Cross’ need-based aid is?
I am wondering the same thing!
@Twinnymama 
I love Holy Cross so much, but I’m afraid that the financial aid may not be enough 
Holy Cross meets full need.
Last year they also offered merit to some admitted students. Not sure is that is the case this year
My son applied ED (and was accepted!) and as part of that process we did submit the supplementals mentioned. However, one piece that I have not seen mentioned on this thread is the Parent Recommendation. My son’s GC, who has been doing his job for 30 years, said that HC is one of the only schools who he has seen request that as part of the process. Just wanted to make sure I chimed in on that piece as well in case it slipped by unnoticed. HC puts so much focus on interest that I suspect that the parent recommendation is also an important part of the puzzle. Best of luck all!
Has anyone heard back yet or are decisions going out on April 1st?
@yaaahyeet not yet, but I think they are being release this Saturday, 3/16!
Holy Cross Admissions just confirmed 3/16 for decision release! so excited — good luck to everyone!!
I know that Holy Cross is releasing decisions this Saturday, but does anyone know around what time?
I didn’t see the optional supplements until it was too late, I also didn’t interview or tour because it was a later decision to apply. I am really interested in the school though, but worried that will prevent me from getting in. I have a 33 ACT and a 4.42 weighted GPA. I really hope that could still get me in but with how competitive everything is I have no idea
Last year decisions were released at 9am
@Jaspers thank you
@sps2100 Good luck tomorrow
@Jaspers you too — Holy Cross is high on my list!
@SPa2100 - We will know by tomorrow morning (9am). If accepted, I plan on driving up to Holy Cross with my parents to walk around campus and hang in the cafeteria, library and Hogan center. I did this with Nova and its a totally different experience than doing the guided campus tour. There are so many great schools so for me it just comes down to feel and fit. Best of luck everyone
I can’t believe the decisions come out tomorrow! I hope we all get in! I’m so excited!!
@Oranolio 12 hours left!
9am that’s soon. Godspeed.
Just got two rejections, hope this gives me something different.
3 rd gen legacy. Not certain it is the best fit but best of luck to everyone today.
