I went back to look at a thread from last year to refresh my memory… Last year people began to receive merit info both in the mail and on MyAid on the 28th… Two days - I can’t handle this.
@anothermuggle Fordham was a total bust for us too. SCU is still in the running. My son liked both SCU and LMU a lot, but if LMU turns out like Fordham then it’ll be out of the picture. Good luck to you. I looked back at the old threads too. I keep thinking the stuff is probably in the mail!!
@CAMidwestMom Just wondering if you knew if scholarships were only for EA applicants or for both EA and RD?
@ref1ections All applicants are automatically considered for scholarships, regardless of decision plan.
All are considered but I think only EA hear this week right?
Okay thanks for that anothermuggle! And I see why only EA would be notified this week because they obviously applied earlier and committees have had more time with their apps, but how would they know what to give out to EA candidates without also seeing RD ones?
Anyone receive EA Merit package, EA FinAid package and/or EA Merit+FinAid package yet ?
12/15/2015 - LMU E-mail that D. was granted EA admission to LMU
01/04/2016 - LMU E-mail “File your FAFSA by January 15 to receive your full aid package in late January.”
01/06/2016 - FIlled out the FAFSA with my D. and selected LMU’s school code
01/08/2016 - LMU E-mail verified they received my FAFSA (my D. asked by E-mail)
It is Jan 30th, 2016 (30th is a Sat and 31st is a Sun) so the work week is over. Still no info via E-mail or MyAid website for EA Merit package, EA FinAid package and/or EA Merit+FinAid package. Perhaps “late January” means midnight on Jan 31st or LMU will be using U.S. Mail to notify students.
Seems like notifications started yesterday Friday around 6:24pm http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/loyola-marymount-university/1854984-lmu-merit-aid.html
I haven’t received mine yet @ArtDad222
I received an email today inviting me to the Scholars Weekend February 21-22, where I will interview for the named scholarships! @ArtDad222 @Bcoutrakis In the email, it said that I would receive my automatic merit aid on Monday, so whether or not that is just for those invited to the weekend or not, I don’t know, but I would assume it’s for everyone.
I have tried to find the answer in this thread before posting but haven’t yet…
does anybody know where I can see if I have been given any merit scholarships? Haven’t received any emails yet… will it be available on MYLMU? Should I call?
@IntBritishBurton I don’t think we can see it anywhere yet. Some people got emails inviting them to a scholars weekend, but otherwise nothing. I think someone said they called and stuff was supposed to be mailed out this weekend.
Based on what I’ve heard, the MyAid portal will probably be updated on Monday.
The MyAid portal was updated today.
My portal was updated this morning! Received an email detailing some aid.
Same with me… what kind of awards has everyone else gotten?
@ebcd2016 @laneline Check out the LMU merit award thread, people there have shared their stats. Also it would be great if you could post your award amount and your stats in that thread, that way future applicants will be able to get some sense of what they can expect to receive from LMU 
Accepted EA, Financial offer so underwhelming 
Hi guys! Does anyone know if there is a LMU Class of 2020 Facebook group or a GroupMe? I haven’t seen any, so if anyone else is interested I’d be willing to make a chat if you message me your phone number. I haven’t committed to LMU yet, but it’s looking more and more likely that I will be attending in the fall!
yes! if you join the fb group Loyola Marymount Class of 2020 and message a member or post on the thread, someone can add you to the group me.
Today I got an email of a status update and then I went to the portal and got my notification of acceptance. I applied Early action, a friend of mine got her email yesterday
