Hii. I’m an international student too. Do you mind sharing your stats?
@BHCHGYH ^^
Does anyone accepted have similar stats?
Traditional undergrad bio major
91.65 unweighted (weighted should be around 4.2ish but high school doesn’t weigh)
1310 New SAT
Top 10% or 22nd out of 399
I’m pretty nervous because I applied a little late in early January for biology (which I know is a popular major). My second choice was nursing (which I know will be hard to get into as well).
Has anyone applied and been accepted with similar stats/major?
If you get a scholarship (Leadership scholarship worth $20,000)- does this include financial aid from the filed FAFSA? I would accept my spot if my Federal Aid is in addition, but my BisonWeb doesn’t mention anything about that…
Also, does anyone from Early Action know when we will get our acceptance packets?
Hello, I am an international student and I got into Howard university about 16 days ago. In my acceptance email they wrote that information regarding my financial aid package will be email from the office of financial aid. However, I didn’t receive any Financial aid information as of now. Should I be worried?
Back in Dec, my D was notified of a scholarship offer in an email from the Financial Office. However, she saw no formal acceptance email or letter from the Admissions Office. Nor did we see the scholarship package in the mail. Phone calls are not returned. Are we the only one? Should we be worried?
@2021parent honestly the same is happening to me. Even the director of my program hasn’t returned any of my emails (and she gave me her personal email) and it makes me not want to go there
My DD hasn’t received anything in the mail either. Got the acceptance email and scholarship notification in December. She said they sent an email saying the packages were delayed. Got the accepted students day postcard but probably won’t be attending as we’re in CA.
I got in on the 17 of February and have not heard back, no packet in the mail or anything, aside from the accepted students day email ever since. Should I be worried? Anyone have any idea what’s going on? It’s been almost three weeks. Like I got into Spelman on Friday and my packet from them was here Monday
Hi
I am an international. I applied EA, but I received my acceptance today. I had sent numerous e-mails to Howard over the past 5 months or so, but they responded to none.
Any other international out there? They had asked me for a WES evaluation, which I didn’t send as it was very costly. I thought my application was incomplete, but they accepted me.This is was so weird.
In the e-mail, they just said that I will receive a mail about my financial aid, but didn’t say anything about it. I will need huge amount of aid( maybe full tuition and a bit more). I am so confused. :-/
Has anyone from early action received their admissions packet?
Accepted 3/2 Still no fin aid/scholarship package. Can’t login to bison web smh
Hi! International student here and received my acceptance email rcently. However, seeing this thread, I am really worried about receiving the financial aid package on time. Could anyone of you succesfully get in touch with Howard?
Thanks in advance
Can regular applicants still get scholarships?
@BrothermanZ did you get your scholarship by email or was through mail.
Also, did you apply for regular or early?
Goodday,
I applied to Howard university regular application.
SAT 1420
GPA 3.98 unweighed.
I have been accepted, but I don’t know if I’ll receive a scholarship.
Please I’ll really appreciate helpful replies.
@Obinnavictor Hi! I applied regular decision too (applied on 1st March and was accepted on 11th March). My accepted email mentioned the Office of Financial Aid will contact me regarding my financial aid package. Now, I am not sure if there are any funds left to provide scholarships to the applicants who applied later. However, as the email mentioned, I think we’ll be contacted by the Office regardless and be clarified about this matter (assuming that your email also states the same information as mine).
@Anushkei I applied 11th of November
Got accepted 17th of February. The email said the same thing
@Obinnavictor A friend of mine goes to Howard and he told me the college is currently on their spring break. They’d be back in session from this Monday (the 20th). I’d suggest you call up the Office of Financial Aid and explain your situation to them. And also, are you an international student?
@Anushkei yeah I am.
I’ve tried calling but no response
