Was there ever a time given for early action applicants? I checked a couple sites and Twitter said it was at 7pm tonight, can anyone confirm?

My son said he got an email on 1/26 stating the decisions would be released at 7pm EST on 1/29. Good luck.

Yes, we were there for a visit on Monday and they confirmed 7 pm. Good luck! I think I’m more anxious then my son.

Same here.

My son was accepted!

Did anyone receive any merit awards/financial aid, if so where was it posted? There is a note in the portal saying there is a delay but curious where it will be posted once received.

Yes, there is a second letter from the Office of Financial Aid.

Under the acceptance letter there were additional documents as linkes that can be viewed. The financial aid/merit awards are there

My question is whether the Early Application Scholarship for $5,000 is a one time award or renewable each of the four years.

RPI Admissions had a Facebook post several weeks ago saying it was renewable each year. :slight_smile:

Did you find the link for the financial aid/merit letter? We can’t find anything on my son’s portal

I have not. There’s a note stating the following :

**The Office of Financial Aid is diligently working to process financial aid awards for accepted students. If you have completed the FAFSA and CSS Profile and don’t see an award at this time, you can expect to receive your award shortly. If any further information or documentation is required, staff from the Office of Financial Aid will reach out to you directly.

Both were completed in December so I’m hoping they update soon.
