Anyway, I think I may have SOME way of trying to cheat the system. I know that they haven't put up financial aid awards (no one that I have spoken to has one anyway), but what time was your financial aid award (the third link in the second category after you log in to 'track my application') last updated? Maybe if they updated it recently it's good news? Or perhaps it is no news? Who knows?

By Jonnyboy (Jonnyboy) on Wednesday, March 31, 2004 - 04:38 pm: Edit

Isn't the wait just sickening? I'm hoping they'll send out the emails a day early like they did for ED...

1 day and 22 minutes people!!!

By Itziar (Itziar) on Wednesday, March 31, 2004 - 04:51 pm: Edit

I don't think the finaid idea works...I've been watching that and mine seems to be "updated" at least once daily at odd hours...I think it's more like the last time the entire system was updated.

By Jonnyboy (Jonnyboy) on Wednesday, March 31, 2004 - 05:00 pm: Edit

Mine doesn't show that either...


ONE WHOLE DAY PEOPLE!!!!!!!

my son just received a fedex from Columbia. It is from Fu engineering. He did receive a likely letter, so I'm assuming that it is an acceptance packet. So, those of you in engineering may receive some good news before 5p.!! Good luck everyone!!

Just realized-we live in NY so the package may have arrived here earlier than expected- it was sent two day mail.
