Does anyone know when the financial aid awards will be available?

Did you try the Net price calculator to get an idea of your financial aid award? I’ve found it to be 100% accurate in previous years to actual awards.

@violetcat101 Did you just find out this morning? Or did they email you last night?

Congratulations to everyone who was accepted. D was wait-listed. In-state, 4.0 uw GPA (her HS doesn’t weigh, but she’s taken several AP courses and 4 college courses and has gotten A’s in all of them, so I think her weighted GPA would be even higher), 29 ACT, 1360 SAT.

@jf1111 I got an email last night around 9:50 notifying me that my application status was updated and I checked right away. Didn’t think about posting until this morning though :slight_smile:
