Uci waitlist discussion thread class of 2024

@Orebitt I’m software engineering and got it

I see that my FAFSA document has a requested date for today 05/20/2020 and I’m a transfer student (Major: CS, Alternate: CGS)

@Orebitt I got it and I’m CS

Data Sci major and I got it

Is this under the ‘My Application Status’ page of the UCI Financial aid site? @fsyed123

It seems like a lot of people got this… I’m very nervous and hope its not a universal patch :’(

Financial Aid office and Admissions are also different, so this maybe doesn’t mean what we’re all thinking.

Is UCI requesting these aid forms only from students who didnt apply for FAFSA yet? I applied for FAFSA months ago and I have got the request on my portal. I’m very much nervous.

I agree with @EPofuPWOUG but I wonder if this means anything since @kingVG7 has friends who did not have changes to their portal. At the same time, it seems like a LOT of people are getting this… so what are the chances :confused:

@EPofuPWOUG yeah, but I don’t know why they’d ask us for all these forms if they weren’t planning on giving us a financial aid package (likely bc they’re letting us in). it would be a lot of unnecessary paperwork on their behalf (bc they have to go through all of our scanned documents) and for us, because we’d have to go through all of our info just to find out it was for nothing.

and @leej8532 I applied for FAFSA on the first available day in October and got the docs. I think it’s for people whose FAFSA was selected for verification, bc mine was and I had to fill out the verification documents.

@leej8532 I submitted my Fafsa ages ago in February and the documents they are requesting from me are my dependent form and tax forms. They have already received my FAFSA

Yikes!

@sbgirl02 I’ve seen a person or two in here saying they haven’t gotten anything. Even one dude on reddit who said he didn’t apply for FAFSA got them, hopefully his situation doesn’t mean anything for us bc that sounds sketch.

Bro, ur stressing too much, theres ppl in this thread that haven’t gotten anything eitherhttp://talk.qa.collegeconfidential.com/discussion/2178756/uci-waitlist-discussion-thread-class-of-2024/#

@mohsam yikes that sounds sketchy. But I think for those who did NOT fill out the FAFSA, thats one of the required forms, whereas people like us only have the dependent and tax forms since we had already submitted out FAFSA… thats what I think…
can you leave the reddt link here? I’m trying to find other sources other than CC haha

Do you normally sort out financial aid stuff after you commit?

The request could be an error on their part.

It could definitely be an error, but there are people who didn’t get this request.

Everyone who got the glitch, are you all CS/Data sci majors

@sbgirl02 I thought I had gotten the incomplete file message at first but when I refreshed it, it once again said “Your file is complete. We expect to have your award available shortly.” So idk if it was my eyes playing tricks on me. Anyway, I guess that means I did not receive any updates :frowning: I’m not sure how to take this.

Anyone from the School of Biological Sciences receive this update?
