<p>It's really mind-boggling. I was given wrong information (intentionally or not) upwards of 25 times. I kept calling, kept being told I'd get a decision the next day, and kept finding out the decision was delayed. I was also an EA applicant.</p>

142

<p>Jerry called me back!</p>

143

<p>ay si guey! just kidding I'm still waiting haha</p>

144

<p>Congrats Chimaera! You were an EA applicant? Thats crazy that it took so long.</p>

<p>and gonsenheim...your evil. I keep on calling Jerry but he wont pickup and I'm not going to leave a voicemail and wait for him to call back...come on jerry PICK UP ILL MAKE IT WORTH YOUR WHILE!!!</p>

145

<p>It's really hard to get through to him. He originally told me to call back in the middle of the week last week, and I kept getting "Voice mail for '...web support' is currently full.'" And I didn't get through until today.</p>

146

<p>He very rarely picks up...I'm 98% sure he has caller id and recognizes those who call a lot because when I called him he knew who I was immediately.</p>

<p>Holy.........I should have applied:)</p>

152

<p>Do you know what your EFC would have been? :)</p>

153

<p>Eh.... Haha.</p>

<p>My FAFSA EFC is 34K, which is why I did not apply for FinAid from UChi.</p>

154

<p>RU KDDING, 21,000 of free money.;....that is amazing</p>

<p>congratulations</p>

155

<p>FAFSA EFC is around 22k for me.</p>

156

<p>i had to do my efc for a scholarship for nyu last year, it was 44,000, i guess i wasn't getting f.a.</p>

157

<p>My fafsa EFC is like $5k..... I wonder what kinda deal Chicago would give me if I get off the waitlist.</p>

<p>I just hope there'll be some money left for the waitlisters. I'm willing to work my arse off after classes and even get into a healthy bit of debt... But just not too much debt.</p>

<p>So the decisions are officially finished... That's great news! I'm glad to see Jerry was correct in at least one of his predictions. :D</p>
