How long ago did you get accepted?
are these merit based, disadvantaged, or diversity?Also got 25% tuition scholarship! They called me on 2/14/20, and I was accepted on 12/17/19

I got accepted on 10/15!!How long ago did you get accepted?
That’s interesting! I thought it was for the diversity essay that I turned in but it could’ve been need based.I'm not sure. The scholarship letter didn't specify...I'm assuming it's based on need/disadvantage since I haven't submitted my diversity scholarship application yet, and I'm fairly average so I doubt it's merit

omg congrats! do you know if it was merit or need-based? also how long ago were you accepted?I'm shook. I got a call yesterday and they offered me a full tuition scholarship.
They told us March 24th, so just stay chill. There's nothing we can do now except wait it out But yeah! They're probably meeting to vote on us!!Okay, please help. My status was “Interview completed” when I last checked the applicant portal (interviewed on 2/17). Now it says “Admissions Committee Scheduled.” Is this like a final review of my application to determine my fate? Should I be excited, concerned? They told us we would hear on or after March 24th, but I’m finding my patience to be quite diminished at this point in the cycle. Please put my mind at ease. Thank you all for indulging my neuroticism.
+1Patiently waiting on that finny aid........ submitted FAFSA super early
Anyone know how/if waitlisted students are awarded scholarships? I'm assuming we can't send in a diversity scholarship application, but is there anything else I can do in the meantime?
I have no idea what the scholarship was based on. But if I had to guess, it may have been need. My LizzyM score is 66.30 so I don't think it was merit, cause I felt like my stats were average.omg congrats! do you know if it was merit or need-based? also how long ago were you accepted?

And I got the acceptance email on Jan 14th. I don't know when I got the call though, maybe a couple days before or after
C/O 2020 Match List!
I know FIU generally has pretty good match lists because they've historically had high step 1 scores but it makes me wonder if that will change with a switch to pass/fail step 1?What are everyone's thoughts on this? That UPenn Dermatology match got me SHOOK

I feel pretty hopeful since they didn’t reach out to tell us otherwise. Fingers crossed! Also do you know if they call for wait list and acceptance?So today is the day that those of us in the last sets of interviews are due to hear back... any thoughts on whether or not this timeline may be skewed due to current events?
Call for acceptance, email for waitlistI feel pretty hopeful since they didn’t reach out to tell us otherwise. Fingers crossed! Also do you know if they call for wait list and acceptance?
Yes, they give merit scholarships.Does anyone know if they give out merit aid? Or just need-base?
2/17 as wellinterview day?
I heard 7/27 for orientation, 8/1 for White Coat, and 8/3 for classes, BUT I'm not sure if that was someone's guess or if these dates were verified. So take this with a grain of salt!Does anyone know around when classes/orientation start?
You can look the schedule on their website. More than likely, the dates will change or go virtualI heard 7/27 for orientation, 8/1 for White Coat, and 8/3 for classes, BUT I'm not sure if that was someone's guess or if these dates were verified. So take this with a grain of salt!
If I have a Zoom white coat I'm going to cry....You can look the schedule on their website. More than likely, the dates will change or go virtual
When were you accepted if you dont mind me asking?Just got a call for a 25% scholarship. OOS URM not sure if need or merit based.
I can’t remember the exact date but I got a call in December it may have been the first or second week.When were you accepted if you dont mind me asking?
Does anyone know how many tuition scholarships FIU gives and if people who were accepted later in the cycle are less likely to get one?
Nope, got accepted October 15th and still no info about getting FIU IDs. They seem to be very quiet.Did any of you guys who were accepted receive your panther IDs or FIU emails?
The diversity essay application requires us to put in our panther IDs and email. But they haven't distributed any of that information yet ...Nope, got accepted October 15th and still no info about getting FIU IDs. They seem to be very quiet.
It says on the email the panther ID and email are not required so just leave them blankThe diversity essay application requires us to put in our panther IDs and email. But they haven't distributed any of that information yet ...
