hey guys ,
ive spent today reading this forum, im a student from the uk who has also applied to rice , and im in a similar situation to someone who stated they hadnt sent their financial aid application in time.
i sent my css profile today partly because I was only made aware of it until about 1 1/2 weeks ago , gathering information took a while, my rice portal also hasnt updated just saying it has not received my financial aid application.
i emailed the admission office yesterday asking ‘’ I havent sent my css profile due to these reasons will this affect my admissions decision ‘’’ and they replied literally ''my financial aid application has no bearing on my admission decision ‘’ - does anyone know what this means.
im also bricking it and nervous like many of you but 3 hours to go , its 7pm in london - we are 5 hours ahead.
It means the admission decision is made by the admission office which has no access to the financial part.
ohh right , that makes sense ,
someone also said financial aid is also a part of the admissions decision though so will this part not be affected especially because im an international student and ive seen some reaction videos which say theyve been offered the rice investment along with their admission decision for early decisions
I do not know about Rice, but other universities give the financial aid information a few weeks after admission. Rice admits very few students, so they might have it all at decision time (financial aid + merit).
thank you
everyone upload whether they have been admitted at 5pm CT ,
good luck !!!
There was news earlier the year that by 2025 Rice will add 800 more undergraduate students. Do we know if that has any implication to the acceptance number for this year?
does everyone not have their withdraw button?
And also does everyone have parent information and do we know if that was there before? I dont think it was but I could be wrong…
where is the withdraw button on the rice admissions portal on the ‘‘my application’’ part and do you have it
no my parent information is there
no I dont have the button
does it mean anything if the withdraw button is not there - if its any consolation mine isnt there either
I dont think it does, everyone seems to not have theirs either. Can you upload materials still?
I dont have that button anymore
That will not impact this class. They have to construct, etc. That’s future planning…for your 9th grade brother if you had one.
Did most of you submit the scores?
