@4boyzsmom What did you ask them? I just called and they said the 15th. Maybe they are sending in two batches?

82

They do not if you did not send your first quarter grades. I had to request my counselor to send them

83

@Pri930 they don’t ask for them. They aren’t required but some people send them in anyways. I didn’t send mine and its nearly the end of the 1st semester so they would’ve contacted us by now. I think they just need the mid year report

84

Thanks a lot @yogayoga1234 , @WardenElite and @cmudreamer

85

@friendfiend I think CMU is trying to head in the same direction as other elite schools
 ‘why should interest matter if everyone wants to go to MIT or Stanford!!’ I think CMU is trying to tack their name to the end of that list. Idk I think they wanna up their rank and be more respected in general
Ive also heard from peers that CMU is kind of seen as an Ivy back-up. I’m guessing theyre trying to scrap that image and come into their own a bit more

86

@slammingkeyboard - I asked when applicants will be notified and the person in the admission office said Saturday at midnight.

87

Thanks for confirming!

88

I clicked the button on the Where Am I and agreed to the attestations about a week ago and it still says they are “not received”
 anyone else have this happening to them?

89

@RonaldDream - My son has the same status but he couldn’t even click on the ‘financial aid notification’. Admission office said they will upload the documents this week. I do see that ‘student tax return’ from is marked as waved today (December 5th). I guess they are working on it

I applied through the common app and they did not have a section dedicated to filling out the financial aid. I looked on CMU’s website and I found that they are accepting financial aid until Feb. 15th, but is that only for the regular decision applicants? Do I have no chance of getting financial aid at this point?

91

@lunajinp Did you fill out the FAFSA and CSS forms? CMU also requests supplemental tax documents. Unfortunately, the deadline for Early Decision financial aid was November 1st. You should call admissions for assistance.

92

@itsreallymia thank you so much for the help, I’ll see if they’ll be able to do anything about this :frowning:

93

@4boyzsmom Thank you so much for finding out the date!
@QuiteAnxious It didn’t show up on WAITP.

94

Just bumping this countdown until decisions. It’s accurate.

@RoleastLained lmao that countdown makes me so anxious

96

For those who submitted a maker project on slideroom, what did you do? I used an Arduino 101 and a BME280 sensor to predict the weather in 12-24 hours.

97

Hey does anyone’s status page say “not currently available?”
