Waitlisted is not rejected - and you WILL end up at the absolutely perfect school for you! Fit is more important than anything - and you will find the right fit.

were charter schools at a disadvantage? almost everyone in my daughters school got rejected but those in public schools got accepted

Did anyone receive notification about a Regents scholarship? It should be in your financial aid.

Son accepted - astrophysics! 4.0, 4,6, Eagle Scout black belt president of drama program, speaks French, 34 act. I shouldn’t be shocked but I am because my goodness there are a lot of unfair results. Was not in the least expecting this. But we are celebrating. Me and my mom went there.

For my S that got in, don’t see any financial aid info. Is that just after he creates an account?

It came a little later last year. Maybe a week or two later. Congratulations on the acceptance!

Yes, it is a little complicated. If it is the same as it has been in the past, he has to set up an account to see financial aid.
