I received an acceptance letter last month and a packet in the mail shortly after. This packet did not detail any scholarship awards or financial aid. I was wondering when this is sent out and whether the university does offer a lot of financial assistance. I live in Illinois so I would require some assistance to help pay out of state tuition
I received email about a week after acceptance letter arrived with my scholarship amount. It said there would be a letter coming in mail with details. From what I read everyone with over a 3.0 gets some kind of merit. Out of state applicants get more.
Thank you for helping, I’m assuming that is a 3.0 high school gpa. It seems some people who applied early still haven’t received acceptance letters so it is possible that people get info at different times. I am just hoping to receive information soon.
People are definitely getting info at different times. It’s pretty random but seems to be generally starting with higher GPAs/test scores
I am going to email the financial aid office because I was accepted November 11, and invited to apply to the honors college, but since then I have only received reminders about the honors college application and nothing regarding scholarhsips.
I got my letter today

Still got to do the Honors college application although i don’t think I qualify but we’ll see.
@Shor2016 maybe try calling admissions when the office is back from the holidays. The provost (merit) scholarship letters come from that office not financial aid office. They were very nice and helpful when we called.
Got my acceptance package today! The postage stamp shows 12/23/2015
@TruAlpha , what state are you in?
@motortrend I’m in-state, what about you?
@TruAlpha I’m in NY
@motortrend Don’t worry you’ll get your acceptance soon! And it may arrive at the most unexpected time!
I got mine a couple of weeks ago but was wondering why my OOS friend didn’t. thanks
Still waiting
@motortrend how long did it take for you to receive your UBIT login?
@TruAlpha I’m still waiting for it to come in the mail. Admissions said it would be arriving shortly.
Does buffalo email the acceptance letter or just mail it out ? Or they do both of it ?
I only got it by regular mail
I got my log in info in the mail today but the letter did not mention anything about scholarships. Does this mean I didn’t get anything?
@tayz98 how long did it take to receive your UBIT login after you received your acceptance packet?
