Official Class of 2021 Northeastern University Early Decision/Early Action Discussion

@Bozusaki you said your family income was around 40k? What is your net price that you will have to pay (including board and deans scholarship)? CONGRATS

@Bozusaki Congrats - what were your stats, if you don’t mind sharing?

@engineur did you apply EA? Does your status check look very blank (as some people described) and did you put a linkedin link to your profile?

I have super similar stats and I applied EA there with the same major! congrats!!! :slight_smile:

Congratulations to all of you ED applicants! It is so great to see all of your hard work paying off - I’m sure you guys are just over the moon. You guys really deserved this!

As an EA application who strongly considered ED, I really, really hope I get to see all of you wonderful people in Boston next year. :slight_smile:

@DannyPanny I didn’t add a linkedin profile because I don’t have one haha. My EFC is very very low if I take out loans. I have $9,700 in self-help options and around $55k in gift aid. Add it all together and it’s pretty close to full ride…However, I’m pretty sure that these figures are subject to change prior to the fall semester.

@engineur Sure! I pasted a list of everything a couple of pages back, but basically I have a 34 ACT and a GPA of 3.8 UW and 4.2 W. I’ll post in the results thread with everything I can think of later tonight.

Question, in what order do admissions decisions come out? I am from Washington state. From what I can tell it seems to be mostly people in Boston RN. Do you think mine will come later this evening or sometime in the next weeks?

I cant really tell how it went down last year based on the other thread.

My EFC according to fafsa is around 1500, so can i expect something similar to what you received? or is yours even lower?

I got into NU in. Better than being rejected I suppose?

how were you notified first? email or the application portal?

Congrats! How did you receive your acceptance? Email or snail mail?

On my decisions page I don’t have anything on the left except my acceptance and directions to the NEU portal, is all hope lost for money? Going to call tomorrow and see but if anyone knows

@kl1211 I received an email at 5:06 PST. I’m not sure if the portal was updated before that, because I checked the minute I received the email.

@kl1211 I think my notifications were pretty much simultaneous. My email came at 8:07 pm according to Gmail and I saw my acceptance at 8:11 pm according to CC.

@Cubby208 Seems to be based on geography. I received my decision a while ago and I live in Florida, I wouldn’t be surprised if it takes longer for west coasters but I’m not sure.

@DannyPanny I’m not 100% sure but I think that mine is roughly equivalent. I’m not sure how Northeastern gives out aid but I imagine yours could be kind of close? My financial aid document has one of my self-help options as around $2,300/yr in family contributions. I’m not sure how that correlates to what FAFSA tells you though.

Yeah same, I know I submitted my CSS profile fairly late but the admissions counselor called me and said told me it was okay if I missed thr priority deadline

Accepted for pharmacy!!! So happy
