Uci waitlist discussion thread class of 2024

@leej8532 When I log in and click on the “‘My Aid Application Status’” tab, it shows a table with the different forms. 3 of the forms are highlighted red because they have not been submitted yet.

@sbgirl02 interesting. For me it says the Parent tax form was due May 1

@sbgirl02 What I am saying is that these changes are universal. It does not necessarily mean that he will get a status update. The way admissions portals work is they show various overlays depending on your admission status. So, every person will have access to both admitted and denied student’s overlays, just that when you click the links, it will say “access denied”

@KingVG7 Request for documents might show for only FAFSA students.

That’s the thing, my friends who applied for Fafsa and currently waitlisted, did not get this request.

This is what part of my page says:

Our office has completed the initial evaluation of the information you and/or your parents’ provided on the 2020-21 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) or Renewal Application. Based on that information, you are ineligible for need-based financial aid but you may be eligible for other financial assistance.

Do people with no request for documents have this written on the ‘My Aid Application Status’ page?

rip i am waitlisted for biosci and i didn’t get the request. completed the fafsa a few months ago

@Orebitt yea i don’t qualify for need based financial aid either and i don’t have any document requests

Where is everyone finding this? Did they get an email? Is there another page besides the home one? Can someone help me out here?

Ok, so my theory is only people that qualified for aid got the requests… but honestly, I don’t know :frowning:

@BreadButter33 search up UCI financial aid portal

My friend that also had the weird thing in the portal (FAQ) also had a change in the Aid Portal (report my changes) housing plan to “on campus- residential hall” I think this is a sign of the people who are getting in.

@Poiuyna was it off campus before it changed to on campus?

I think the housing plan is based on your FAFSA. I’m pretty sure you indicate it when you fill out the form and its inputted into your financial aide portal.

@worriedSenior345 Not sure, he checked a few minutes ago. I don’t think he knew about the website before

I just looked at the Report My Changes page as well, mine shows “On Campus - Residence Hall”. Does anyone know what the page said before today?

@orebitt A lot of people, myself included, have “off campus- apartment”

I have on campus as well

i have on campus - residence hall too and i didn’t get forms requested

I have on campus - residence hall as well
