when will they email all the students who get in

<p>does any 1 know that?
thx!</p>

<p>Do you mean with RD acceptances? My daughter was accepted EA, and they did not email. They mailed acceptances (large envelope). She was supposed to have heard mid-January but heard at least a week before expected. I don't know if RD acceptances will be mailed before the announced date, though.</p>

<p>yes i got the admission letter,just today!
i am so excited, but the finacial aid is too little, i do wonder whether there is any way to get more FA from them. as i want to go there so much!</p>

<p>Well, you are farther ahead than we are! My daughter was accepted in early January with a nice scholarship. However, she is in the running for Rector, and we are supposed to hear by tomorrow about that. In the meantime, we have no idea what our financial aid package looks like! I do know that DePauw doesn't give anything more than full tuition in their scholarships, so that may indicate that they do expect a decent family contribution from those the financial aid info indicates can pay. If you really don't think you can handle it, contact financial aid & make your case. Just be sure to have your facts ready. Good luck!</p>

<p>Athena Xiong, remember their idea of what you "need" involves a lot more pain (for you) than your idea of what you "need". That said, kelsmom is right, contact them and politely make your case.</p>

<p>We got the info back on scholarships. D did not get Rector, but she got an extra $2000 per year from Holton to add to her other scholarship. But quite honestly, the financial aid package was a surprise --- way too much student loan content for a freshman, in my opinion. For a school whose alumni donate at an outstanding rate, I would think there might be more of an effort to lessen the loan burden.</p>

<p>After my initial shock, I did go back and take another look at the financial aid award letter. It isn't quite as bad as I had thought. DePauw packages a bit differently than the other schools D has award letters from. The loan & work study amounts on the letter are high, but the actual cost of attendance less the scholarship amount does equal around our FAFSA EFC. Once I did the math and looked at it more carefully, it's pretty much in line with the other schools ... and it gives some flexibility to borrow at subsidized rates, which is nice. That said, of course, the amount we would have to pay is more than we can actually afford without borrowing more than we are comfortable borrowing --- but that seems to be the case at all the privates!</p>
