<p>Nothing form Rochester yet. . . .maybe monday.</p>
<p>But I did hear from Union. . . . .I was accepted, with a nomination to their Scholars Program.</p>
<p>I received a Presidential Scholarship of 15,500, BUT, they took this out of my need based package. . . . so my need based is non-existant. </p>
<p>So my package sucks. Too bad they didn't offer me a better package. I'm sure I can do better than 15,500 gift aid. Oh well, their loss :)</p>
<p>I didn't hear anything about need-based aid yet...just nomination for Scholars Program and Presidential Scholarship. Wow...we are two of a kind!!! :-)</p>
<p>wow, elady. . . . .we must have nearly identical taste in colleges and compatible even in our financial aid.</p>
<p>I'm assuming that any need-based aid would be shown on the financial aid summary. . . . .if you know otherwise, please let me know.</p>
<p>That's kind of weird. . . . .so we both applied to U of R and Union. . . .I almost applied to Williams, and I visited campus. . . . .we must very likes and dislikes when it comes to colleges.</p>
<p>crazy, crazy!! i didn't get a financial aid summary. hmmmm. i'll have to look through my stuff again. where else did u apply?</p>
<p>No financial aid summary? That's weird. Mine was right behind the letter from the financial aid office about the Presidential Scholarship.</p>
<p>I applied to Union, U of R, Colgate, Columbia, Cornell, and RPI. I've only heard from RPI and Union so far.</p>
<p>I looked at Colgate and decided not to apply!!! We should hear from U of R tomorrow.... :-)</p>
<p>i know, i cannot wait. i will be waiting by the mailbox :D</p>
<p>wait, i think it just contradicted myself. haha.</p>
<p>crapola. i waited and waited. then i checked the mail...and nothing. maybe tomorrow!</p>
<p>damn, that makes me mad, i was thinking it would come today</p>
<p>I just heard from U of R. I got accepted!! Their package is realy cute, kinda tough to open. I ended up getting a hugepapercut trying to rip the thing open. Oh, well. Atleast I got in somewhere!!!!</p>
<p>Yes! got in. When you get your packages, don't try to "open them (like me). I almost tore it apart until i realized that it slides out.</p>
<p>so, if i get a funky-cool package, i am in? sweet! maybe liam and I did not get ours because we live so far away.</p>
<p>Oh believe me you'll know, it says "Welcome Class of 2009" HUGE on the front...I was looking it over, its so heavy that they spent $1.98 to mail it. I'm in PA, so I guess you guys will get them tomorrow or wednesday.</p>
<p>Yeah. . .the welcome to class of 2009 on the front of the envelope doesn't exactly leave you in suspense. Haha. . .the mailman knew before I did.</p>
<p>So, I just got mine today, but I live in Upstate NY, so those that live farther away will take a little longer.</p>
<p>Are the packages sent through FedEx?</p>
<p>No, I got mine in the mail, and I'm all the way across the country, so everyone should have got theirs today</p>
<p>anyone rejected???? maybe they sent rejection letters later. :S</p>
<p>Standard mail. Big Envelope, trust me if you're in you'll know it.</p>
<p>yay!!! i got in too!!! i agree...the packaging is too complex even for us scholars!!!</p>
<p>union and siena sent me so much junk email.</p>
