did they give out lot of $300 travel vouchers?
How do we find out about financial aid information? Were we supposed to be emailed a PIN code?
@kashkat Did people get travel vouchers??? We did not and we are heading back up to Portland to check it out next week. A travel voucher would have helped!!!
@LKnomad I read on their website that they give out vouchers (for travel expense reimbursements) to students from “historically underrepresented” backgrounds and ethnicities. I got one with my acceptance letter
@kashkat can you give me a link?
So I got my package today!!! but there was no mention of financial aid in there, does this mean I did not receive any??
FA login info comes in an email, nothing in the mail.
@usualhopeful do you know when they give that out
I live in South Florida and I have yet to receive any notification of acceptance or rejection
I doubt this bids well for me
@yepyep don’t worry, I think financial emails are coming and they will send a pin. If we don’t get one soon I will email and ask. I don’t think anyone from RD had mentioned FA yet.
NYC here, I received a waitlisted letter sometime yesturday, does anyone know the statistics on waitlisted students being accepted and with financial aid? I don’t know if it’s worth dealing with it
@Sherruby last year the accept they accepted 3/437 people the year before it was 59/351 so it depends on yield
Oh sorry hold on the email thing is probably true for Reed also, but I thought this was the URochester thread @yepyep.
How concerned should I be if I’m in SoCal and I haven’t received anything yet?
@kashkat thanks. Middle Eastern is always counted as white so he misses some of these opportunities. Guess I will give them a call and see what they say.
I mentioned financial aid earlier in this thread (page 35; post #515).
@LKnomad hmm I’m from Pakistani decent and I got one
@Kashkat - Maybe Turkish is not as underrepresented? Hmmmm I will give them a call.
