OFFICIAL UChicago EA Class of 2017 Results Thread!

<p>omg… someone please find out about this ‘fasfa line’. I’m not going to be able to sleep tonight…</p>

<p>I think he is just lying because of how he wrote it says “My account says: Awaiting FAFSA - Free Application for Federal Student Aid” </p>

<p>When really the online account is to check for documents that have been sent/should have been sent by a date. And FAFSA is not due until Feb.</p>

<p>Does anyone else see this in their account?</p>

<p>would schlaag post an entire thread on this just to ■■■■■?</p>

<p>wait no my 2012 tax return says “awaiting” next to it with a big fat x…</p>

<p>my account does state awaiting Parents Tax return Form. So he might not be lying.</p>

<p>yeah, mine says that too, but it doesn’t say anything about the FAFSA. does yours?</p>

<p>ok this all prob means nothing. the admissions process probably is not that disorganized to let these kinds of hints slip before the actual decision. </p>

<p>But let me be dramatic for a few seconds and say…</p>

<p>I’m doomed.</p>

<p>no. mine doesn’t say anything about FAFSA.</p>

<p>literally cannot sleep now…</p>

<p>However, I do suspect that they have done something to my account because it came up today that my tax return form was not signed… but whatever. this is all speculations.</p>

<p>me too. i am not tired after reading about the FAFSA thing. if whoever started this is lying. I AM GOING TO BE…</p>

<p>@rldmsdl12 and SHHSEL:</p>

<p>A few weeks ago my account said the parent’s tax return was missing too… because I forgot to send them in… but I faxed them in, and it shows up with a green check mark now.</p>

<p>But I’ve never heard of the ‘fasfa’ line until this came up.</p>

<p>Idk what to think of it anymore. I’m just going to forget about it. I’m sure that it doesn’t mean we got rejected if we don’t have the fasfa thing</p>

<p>yeah me too. I faxed my tax stuff in and they said they got it, but today it stated that they were not signed or something so my dad has to refax it. ehhh… first time hearing about FAFSA</p>

<p>i agree with rldmsdl12… it doesn’t mean anything. probably…</p>

<p>Hey guys, my tax form is in, along with the profile, according to my portal. I don’t have a “tab” for FAFSA but I have an x with “Additional Information Required” right next to it. I think this is the information the Office emailed my mom about and requested. In case any of you missed me talking about this email, it’s buried a couple pages. This thread moves fast. </p>

<p>Anyway, Office of Aid is still working on packages and will be even after EA results come in. They are still accepting applications for financial aid, so don’t worry. If you haven’t gotten anything about missing forms or you don’t have a “FAFSA tab” (okay, there are no tabs on the portal, what is this even), don’t stress out! Your package could be in the makes right now, or it might even be in the makes after you get a decision!
Think of your applications as individual (they really are); you aren’t all going to be on the same page and in the same stage. Some people are still missing forms. Some people might already have a package made. Some people might not have gotten to the Office of Aid yet (although that would imply that getting contacted by Office of Aid means you got in, and no one is saying that, nor should anyone say that). Have patience, which is easier said than done!</p>

<p>Why do you get all worked up? Do you really think Uchicago would be dumb enough to give an indication</p>

<p>Of acceptance before the date?</p>

<p>@CollectiveGood Everyone is just extremely nervous about the decisions, so we’re all just hyperanalyzing everything. None of these posters ever thought Uchicago would be “dumb enough to give an indication” just simply the nerves and agony and fear of the results next week…</p>

<p>Does anyone know when the decision will be released?</p>
