Does anyone know how to access financial aid? Is it only in the paper mail? I see a box for it on the page yet there is no content.
@RidleyBCHS financial aid is available after your acceptance. Mine took a couple of days to see the award
Okay, maybe it’ll be there at the end of the week. Thank you @moundalay !
Hi all! I got accepted on Monday, March 16th and I just today found out about financial aid/merit scholarships. So it took about 9 days after I was admitted. Many of my friends are not receiving any merit aid, but I hear there are merit scholarships from $18,000-$25,000.
Best of luck to everyone who is still awaiting a decision. I know it’s hard to be patient, but I hope you guys can get through it!
Still waiting! 
Hey!! USD gives great financial aid/ scholarship. I was give the 25k alcala award and 16.5k usd grant
what’s the 16.5 usd grant? is that because of need-based aid?
Should we assume that if a kid hasn’t been admitted that they won’t get any merit because they’re at the bottom of the list? Or have the pretty much taken the kids they want and we should move on?
I received a 24 USD grant
Just for fun, I looked at the 2023 USD thread and it sounds like they were really slow last year, too. I guess this is just how they do it.
I hope so !
@purpler No! do not assume that, I was given about 42k total, and was accepted last week. I was also invited to the honors program. They also extended the deadline to apply to the honors program to April 1st meaning that they probably have more students to invite to honors that they haven’t accepted yet!
Wow, @nervoussenior111 If I was given that package I would go in a heartbeat.
People were accepted on the last day last year and still received merit. No correlation @purpler
No status change, still C-RFR, no email, no extra tab on portal. ‘sigh’ Fingers are still crossed and hoping for good news very soon.
same @MA2024 the suspense is killing me!
I’m still thinking Monday for the final wave for you guys.
Would waitlist have come out yet or do you think they would also release them on Monday if you’re not accepted or rejected?
Rejected in my email today. 27 ACT 3.8 gpa, lots of extracurriculars. Oh well, moving on to the next…
I just got admitted today, checked the portal, changed from complete ready for review to committee review. I have the admitted tab, no info on financial aid yet
