<p>Has anyone else who applied EA not received their letters? im getting worried</p>
<p>My son applied EA and has heard nothing thus far. I believe Fordham stated all decisions for EA will be released by the end of December.</p>
<p>Oh ok thanks!! what major is your s</p>
<p>Chemistry and your child?</p>
<p>As has been stated on several other threads on this board, Fordham will release all the decisions on December 15 (some were released earlier), by regular mail.</p>
<p>Just got it today :)</p>

<p>does anyone know if scholarship information comes in the acceptance letter? if not, when would those notifications be mailed?</p>
<p>I just got an early action acceptance letter, and it does not contain information about scholarships or aid offered, but rather, encourages admitted students to call a phone number listed there for assistance in filling out the FAFSA.</p>
<p>scholarships are sometimes offered at time of notification of admission, sometimes later…as in late winter. Generally scholarships require a combined SAT of 1400/1600. There are some specific restricted funds available for some scholarships, not generally available to kids who dont fit that profile (e.g. some ethnic and some catholic school related). </p>
<p>Every applicant to Fordham is considered for scholarships. No specific scholarship application is necessary. </p>
<p>It is generally advisable to fill out a FAFSA, whether you need financial aid or not, as all scholarships require a FAFSA completion, which is largely for statistical analysis. In any event the FAFSA makes you eligible for university grants and loans as well.</p>
<p>Scholarships cover partial tuition or full tuition. They don’t cover room/board (cf. athletic scholarships).</p>
