<p>So I sent my Fee waiver around the last week of December and on the status checklist for Northeastern, it says "Official fee waiver Documentation" under Required Documents.
But under Received Documents it says Fee Waiver Request. I don't know If my fee will be waived or not before the deadline. So anyone know what's going on?</p>
<p>You need to call tomorrow. Absolutely do not just wait under you see a change. </p>
<p>First off, it may never change-- meaning either you got rejected for the request or maybe nothing really happens when you do get a request approved, who knows. Second, imagine if they only update the website to say “approved” after weeks of processing. You’re application is going to be going in right next to the deadline, with thousands and thousands of other applications. You’re already cutting it close- call and make sure that you don’t risk waiting even longer.</p>
<p>I had the same problem when I applied so I called them up and they told me that they had received my waiver and the official documentation was something they had to do so I didn’t need to worry about it and eventually it turned into a received document. But it doesn’t hurt to call and double check.</p>
