Has anyone sent the admissions office an email asking to match another school's financial aid package and gotten a response?
~300, but a good number are also current M1s (~10-20)
Someone from previous class mentioned about the fb group having 380 on average so I guess there might be some waitlist movement
Pretty sure you can check historical waitlist movement on MSAR. The class is ~135 (not including ~15 MSTP students), so I wouldn't go by the FB page as any sort of indicator.
Does anyone (particularly current students) know what day-to-day class schedules look like in M1 & M2? I'm looking to get a better idea of lecture/mandatory class time.

I receive this. Thank you!
You got an acceptance after the other person withdrew already? 😱
That's the idea. But no news yet.
Hey, sorry I'm totally clueless about all this. How does one withdraw their acceptance? Am I missing a link somewhere?
@greymanduck I don't think there's a withdraw button on the portal. You can just send an email to the admissions office.

Anyone hear back from Feinberg?
Also wondering if anyone has heard back about matching offers! Hopefully they’re getting back to us with a decision sometime this week
“Waitlist offers are made after the uniform acceptance date and continue until the class is filled. Preference is given to students who express ongoing interest in attending FSM.” I guess as long as u keep in touch, you’ll be considered.

Do you know if they’ll respond even if they don’t match? April 30 is approaching quickly..

If they don't respond by tomorrow, I'm personally giving up hope of an increase.

wanted to let people know the assistant director said waitlist movement "tends to vary widely each year - some years we accept none and others we accept several dozen."
It’s a very popular school. I’d love to study there, but it’s probably more expensive than any of my other potential options.
when did she say this?

After I emailed her asking how many usually get off the waitlist
I reached out a few weeks ago and finally heard back this morning. They updated the offer but didn’t match. I’m probably going to withdraw.

Did they reply to your email?
Yes, they replied to the email and updated CAESAR.
Did you get the email through your personal email or the Northwestern email account?
Anyone know when we have to send in the acceptance form by>

Thanks! I received an email that was formatted exactly like my original award email. CAESAR hasn't been updated yet.

Has anyone contacted NU regarding when’s the latest they’d reach out to us today letting us know if they’ve matched offers?
The auto-reply from NU for these kinds of request is "There is no set date when additional scholarship or grant awards will be sent. Award notifications are released on a rolling basis starting in late March, and it’s possible for a student to receive a notification in the next few months afterwards."
Based on that, I don't think there's a "latest date." They probably will just redistribute funds as people drop.
