Additional info & updates

2-26-09--- Accepted to WIDENER. Found out through online status checker. Not sure if I want to go there, BUT it feels good to have one under my belt :)

*Got the official notice two days later. No money for me..guess I'm not moving to DE

2-27-09--- What a good day! Accepted to NEW YORK LAW, SYRACUSE, HOFSTRA, and TOURO via regular mail. Got some sweet scholarship money. (As well as a tee shirt and bumber sticker from Syracuse. Nothing wins me over like free stuff!)
I need to look into things further of course, but right now I'm going to bask in sweet relief.

3-09-09--- Accepted to ST. JOHN'S. Great, but since the money is so little compared to others, it really takes them out of the running. Ah well. Looks like Hofstra is currently my top choice, and New York is still a consideration as well. I just wish I had more time before deposits are due.

3-12-09-- Accepted to UB. No money, but that's not so important. I wasn't really expecting this. Now I'm pretty much confused...

3-16-09-- Accepted to ALBANY with a nice scholarship. So yeah...probably not.

3-28-09-- Rejected from RUTGERS and waitlisted at PACE?!! I was more than a little surprised at the waitlist thing, but oh well. I already decided on Hofstra anyway. I know I have a rejection coming from Brooklyn so I guess I'm done!

No kidding, u almost got my whole list covered. You'll get some positive responses with your numbers, no luck needed. I'll watch you, u never know, we might end up in the same school and section

Snail Mail...

Everything came via snail, the only e-maail I got was from Rutgers informing me I was deferred. BiG Congrats on the handful of acceptances!! Your gotta be swimmin in dopamine right now!

NO! Apparently, there was a section on the application that required an additional essay in order to be considered for any merit scholarships. I didn't write one, and subsequently received no $$. *I called the admissions office to receive that bit of info

Friday, January 09 2009 at 07:00 PM

i got offered the money in the acceptance packet-- it wasn't on the acceptance letter, there was another letter from financial aid i think. but it was also for money that i applied for-- in the application i did an extra two essays for the scholarship provided by alumni. hope that helps!

Ditto!!
Friday, December 05 2008 at 07:00 PM

omg, no more essays please! is all i could think when pumping out my 15 apps. If i'm not mistaking, even if we got 30k from Syracuse, we'd still end up w a smaller bill with Hofstra, or NY for you, considering their lower tuition + slightly warmer weather ;)

Emails before mail
Thursday, January 15 2009 at 07:00 PM

I saw you had asked if some schools email you a decision before getting it via snail mail. I recieved my acceptance to UB via email and have yet to recieve it in the snail mail...so keep your eyes open for an email from them.

I'm scheduled to visit on March 22nd during an open house day. Their scheduling a mock class and a campus tour that day, so I should get a good feel for things, you should come!
