<p>So it's less than a week till the deposit deadline, yet I have received nothing from UChicago about my financial aid yet. I've called at least 10 times, emailed at least 15 times, and yet, no answer. </p>
<p>I am quite bewildered...</p>
<p>How am I to choose?</p>
<p>Send Michael Behnke an e-mail with your complaints-- he oversees both the admissions office and the financial aid office. Obviously, the University has the decision to award as little (or as much) money as it seems fit, but they should be answering phone calls and e-mails, and they should treat students and parents with decency and respect:</p>
<p>What wise advice, menloparkmom, considering that I wrote that post on April 10 regarding another financial aid issue. </p>
<p>Check out post 12. It's the same word for word:</p>
<p>I know this is the internet and all, but can I still get credit for writing what I wrote?</p>
<p>amykins ... oh, dear.</p>
<p>dangngyen -
in addition to amykin's advice, have you tried calling your regional admissions rep?</p>
<p>I second the suggestion to email Michael Behnke. Make sure you mention how many times you called and emailed.</p>
<p>Got it solved. Thanks!</p>
<p>Excellent - its hard enough waiting until April let alone through April!</p>
