When will we hear about financial aid decisions?

<p>I was accepted EA but haven't received ANYTHING about financial aid. And it's not because I don't need it! Has anyone heard? I'd kind of like to know whether Chicago would be financially feasible before I shell out 400 bucks to fly up for the April overnight :)</p>

<p>In February at the Sewanee merit weekend I heard a girl boasting about how she had gotten a full ride merit scholarship, but I think she was BS'ing to dare the Sewanee people into giving her more (UChicago doesn't even give merit aid, does it? I thought it was just need-based).</p>

<p>Chicago does give merit aid - some $10,000 scholarships and some full rides.
I think us EA admits are supposed to hear around the same time as RD people - a week or two after decisions went out - which means this week? next week? Maybe?
I’ve pretty much ruled out UofC based on the estimate of financial aid. I expect it to increase a little, but don’t know by how much, so I’m struggling with the overnight thing too.</p>

<p>According to their website, Chicago informs all scholarship winners by April–or with RD decisions. So, you can be confident that she was simply, as you put it, BS’ing.</p>
