Timing of award letters

Paying for College

Good day!

First time poster, but lurking for month’s has given me much information. Thanks to all the poster’s!

I realize that different schools take different approaches, but can someone give me a range of time it takes to start seeing award letters from the schools?
We completed the FAFSA on the day it was available, received acknowledgement that everything was processed and have been checking with each schools account to make sure that no additional documentation is required.

Thanks for any ideas,

Usually with the acceptance so March-ish. If you mean for Rolling Admission or EA, you’ll need to ask the school.

Are all the schools FAFSA-only? What is your EFC? Are the schools private? instate publics? OOS publics?

Most schools that are FAFSA only do not give much aid. One exception is the UCs in Calif…but only if you’re instate.
