Has anyone received their Financial Aid package (as opposed to merit award) yet? An email went out about a week ago saying this process was starting and I think I read that it begins Jan 15th or something.

23

Yes, my son got his full package on Jan 17. He got an email and it was updated in his portal.

You might already know this but you have to go into the other portal with the royal ID. You create a new account and then click on the left for financial aid and then it comes up. There is an email that says how to do this that I initially overlooked.

Love Scranton but they are coming out as more expensive for us than I think any other school.

31

they didnā€™t end up being too expensive for me, a little less than Rutgers (which is my state school)

When did the SJLA info go up on the portals? Was it there when acceptances went out? I only noticed it there this morning. Does anyone know?

33

No idea, I didnā€™t even notice it. Thanks for pointing that out!

Donā€™t see it on sonā€™s portal. Where do you see it? Maybe only a select few have it.

35

You have to scroll down a little bit and then you should see it, itā€™s just one of those rectangles.

Itā€™s in the box under ā€œInvitation for Your Accepted Student Appointmentā€ and above ā€œSchedule a Campus Visitā€ when logging in from a phone.

Not there. Iā€™m guessing heā€™s not eligible.

38

Iā€™m not sure of the criteria for selection or if itā€™s an ongoing notification, but I did read that students can apply to be accepted during undergrad.

Hi, May I ask how did Scranton end up being less than Rutgers? I am Rutgers alumni and my daughter applied there as well. We told her everything has to be compared to Rutgers money wise. We really like Scranton but unless she gets a ton in merit I canā€™t see her going there.
