So, I'm still applying for Fall 2014...

Applying to College

<p>How this all started: <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/financial-aid-scholarships/1654245-will-my-situation-be-worth-the-debt-p1.html"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/financial-aid-scholarships/1654245-will-my-situation-be-worth-the-debt-p1.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Boy, do I have a doozy for you all.</p>

<p>I have applied to UAH but had a whole deal about the translation of my 9th grade transcript (Argentina). That has been sent by courier and is yet to be received. So basically, I'm a week away from the orientation (August 14th) without actual confirmation of my acceptance or any idea of my financial aid package or loan applications. I'm also freaking out about the vaccines and the early move-in application and -my biggest worry- plane tickets! I'd have to leave the 12th to get there the 13th in the afternoon, hence my early move-in dilemma.</p>

<p>I've called the office but they haven't been in in the past few days and I don't understand why they were the only college that had an issue with my 9th grade transcript. The thought of starting classes late and missing out on all the welcome stuff is bringing me down. I knew I'd be against the clock on this but it just seems like they aren't big on flexible cooperation.</p>

<p>I could use any and all advice on what to do to prep what I can at this point and whether I should email them about getting Fin Aid estimates and info on everything I should get done or just wait for a reply. Squeezing all the necessary preparation into one week doesn't seem very realistic but this may just be pessimism taking reign. This site helped so much last time, I couldn't help but seek advice from you all one more time!</p>

Are you international student or US Citizen student? I don’t think the acceptance, financial aid, housing & class registration could be done in 2 weeks (UAH classes start on 8/20/14) I think you are looking at Spring term enrollment.</p>

<p>No, this is a last-minute app.
OP, if I were you I would just keep calling the office until I get ahold of someone.</p>
