Congrats to everyone accepted into the class of 2022!
Has anyone received information about their financial aid award yet? Anyone know if it comes as a letter or if it’s updated on the Gibson portal? (My portal only shows my merit aid award at the moment.) Any information/feedback would be appreciated. 
Also, does anyone know details/specific dates for when Paul Tulane and Deans’ Honor scholarship results are released??
I haven’t received any info about financial aid yet, but I know PTA and DHS come out late February, which based on an old blog post means the 20th or later.
thank you!!! also, I ended up reading somewhere that finaid stuff is released around the end of January, after the final due date for CSS profiles, I think.
D was accepted EA to Tulane in 2015. We didn’t get her FA package until late March because there was a form missing and she didn’t get an email about it nor was it clear on the portal that anything was missing. Finally she emailed FA to see why the FA offer hadn’t arrived and only then did she learn about the missing form (which was something very simple, like 3 lines - no other school required it). Unfortunately this was too late for her to visit and she had a similar FA offer elsewhere and took it.
I post this just to say, make sure you stay on top of the docs required. Had the offer come sooner we could have visited and she would have given it a shot. It was a much better offer than we expected, once we finally got it. Near full ride without loans.
@OHMomof2 wow… curious abt what that missing form is. hoping it’s not the same case for me 
i will check in w FA offices if I don’t hear back before february.
@lydmatts - last year the Deans’ Honor Scholarship package arrived for my daughter on February 20th.
Anybody receive numbers on need based FA?
^^^ anyone also want to tip us off as to whether they go over, under, or ballpark compared to the fafsa? I’m hoping it’s over haha
In D’15s case the package was MUCH better than expected. But as I said, we got it too late to visit or take action, due to the missing whatever form.
My daughter’s friends have received their FA awards in the last few days-we don’t see anything yet on Gibson.
Have most people heard back about FA?
My husband called and was told we’d hear around the end of January. I’m keeping my fingers crossed as Tulane is my S top choice.
I received mine yesterday via email. it was not much but I am not surprised
I have such a dumb FA question…accepting the terms and conditions doesn’t equate to accepting the offer of admission right? I realize I haven’t checked that box yet. Can anyone confirm?
@bigchoices2018 As far as the school is concerned you haven’t accepted the offer of admission until the deposit clears.
@EDHDAD THANKS
I checked Gibson portal last night and need-based FA award arrived!
@FrothyShake Was your need based award what you expected?
Better/worse?
Does it make it affordable for you?
@lalalander111 Need based award was better than I expected but the merit scholarship was a bit less than hoped. I guess it evens out for year 1 but need changes from year to year - especially when my older son graduates college. Merit stays constant so I would have preferred that. Overall cost is more than expected but it may be doable. Waiting to hear from other acceptances…
@FrothyShake Did you get an email that the need based FA was available or did you just happen to check and see?
