Has anyone recieved any financial aid/scholarships? Or do you have to apply first?
MSAR says: Formal interview days are scheduled on Tuesdays and Thursdays between late August and February.Does anyone know if FAU is still sending out interviews?
The last interview is this Thursday, feb 27. I was offered an interview about a week ago and the only available dates were today and then. I called to see if I could do it the following Thursday and they said these were the only ones left.Does anyone know if FAU is still sending out interviews?

That’s ok!! 55-60% of their matriculated students came off the alternate list! If this is your absolute top choice, make that clear to them and you have a huge shot. Good luck !alternate list
I'm really sorry to hear that. It's easier said than done, but it's not over just yet. If it's your first choice, definitely send those LOI's. You have still have a strong chance of being accepted.alternate list
March! They didn’t give us exact dates so I’m guessing it’s all through marchDoes anyone know when the admission committee reviews applicants on the alternate list?
I didDid anyone else receive an email about whether or not you want to remain on the alternate list?
Yes. Monica repliedDid anyone who sent a LOI receive a confirmation or reply that your letter was received?
thanks KING!Withdrawing from alternate; good luck everyone!
How long did it take for you to receive a confirmation?Yes. Monica replied
yes how long did it take lol I never got a replyYes. Monica replied

Thanks!! I’ll wait few days to get a confirmation then.She responded within hours for me, but I think that's because I happened to submit it before things got busy (~March 3rd). I've been talking to someone else on the alternate list who told me it took them a few days to get a reply. In their case, I think it took a while because they submitted it a couple days before the last wave of decisions were going to be released. Perhaps now, FAU is also super busy because of coronavirus + they're meeting to discuss waitlisted students. I wouldn't worry tho- if you sent it, it will go into your file. All Monica responded to me was that she received the letter and put it in my file. I doubt she even read it. Maybe just reference your LOI when emailing her back about wanting to remain on the alternate list?
Did you submit the LOI through the portal?Yes. Monica replied
No! Those are for updates. I sent a letter (PDF) to [email protected] and [email protected]. If you do it through the portal, you can only use 500 characters!Did you submit the LOI through the portal?
Got it! I was a little confused there but thank you!!!!No! Those are for updates. I sent a letter (PDF) to [email protected] and [email protected]. If you do it through the portal, you can only use 500 characters!
NopeFor anyone else that emailed back saying they wanted to remain on the alternate list, did you guys get any confirmation afterwards or no?

What time did they tell you to check? they told me 3:00 and my portal hasn't been updated yetAlternate list!! No email it was just posted on my portal
I don't think they gave us a time in my interview. I just checked because I remembered today was supposed to be the day. I hope it is good news for you! I think that for accepted students the portal doesn't change until you get a call.What time did they tell you to check? they told me 3:00 and my portal hasn't been updated yet
Thanks, I have my fingers crossed! and I hope you get in off the alternate list soonI don't think they gave us a time in my interview.
