Not from CC, interviewed 02/09, OOS but strong ties to Chicago!

Did anyone get anything other than loans in their financial aid package?

When did you get your aid package? I haven't received one yet.

 

[soygirl]

Only loans too ;(

 

[ferngully2021]

I have a small scholarship in mine, but I'm pretty sure it's not a final package until they email you. Mine has no loans, which doesn't make sense.

Mine had a small SSOM scholar award in addition to the loan offers.

I just got mine yesterday!

 

[owleyes42]

I got an email saying that financial aid had been posted. I remember checking a few days before and only a few things had been posted.

Okay, that makes me feel better about my situation as I have not received any emails, only checking the portal.

 

[soygirl]

This is making me nervous. I got an email saying “The Stritch School of Medicine Financial Aid Office (FAO) has now prepared your financial aid package, which is available online via your LOCUS account.” And only loans in my award 😅😅

Yes, and that is completely determined by your FAFSA/parental income.

 

[queenbeee]

Yes, and that is completely determined by your FAFSA/parental income.

I’m a FAP recipient and still got all loans 😭

 

[soygirl]

Same, I was really disappointed because Loyola was a top choice for me!

Maybe a dumb question but do instructions to log into your LOCUS account come with the financial aid email? Or do I already have an account?

Mine came before getting the financial aid email from [email protected]

Same it was my top choice /:

 

[PackersarewastingRodgers]

I only see a small scholarship in my 'Awards' tab, should I be seeing the loans too at this point or is that still coming?

 

[Talldoctor96]

For all of you with the financial aid questions, I would reach out to the financial aid email. They are really nice, happy to go over things with you, answer any questions, etc.

They could, for example, confirm that you are receiving just loans Or if maybe everything isn't updated yet.

 

[kris111816]

Has anyone who applied before the deadline not received aid information yet?

 

[cruzertown411]

Quick question, is the "Allowance for Grad PLUS-SOM" just another loan lmao?

 

[Talldoctor96]

Quick question, is the "Allowance for Grad PLUS-SOM" just another loan lmao?

Yes

 

[cruzertown411]

Yes

Love that for me 😂😂😂 +1 for all loans in my awards then **sighs**

 

[Couch king]

Has anyone who applied before the deadline not received aid information yet?

I am still waiting for the email and full financial aid package!

 

[kris111816]

I am still waiting for the email and full financial aid package!

Okay, thanks! And has anyone else not received information for setting up a LOCUS account?

 

[doglover1997]

Does anyone know if scholar awards are disbursed for each year of medical school or if it's only a one-time award? Thanks in advance

 

[ttwebster9]

I hadn't received any news from the financial aid office so I emailed them yesterday and today I woke up to an email that said my full award package was ready! (got the scholar award but otherwise all loans)

 

[doctorcito97]

Love that for me 😂😂😂 +1 for all loans in my awards then **sighs**

lmao I also got that ~very~ small award and the rest was loans 😢. I emailed the financial aid office because I come from a low-income family and was expecting a little more help but will see what they say

 

[NIKK234]

Does anyone know if/when the next committee meeting is? Are they meeting before making the waitlist in May? Thanks! Patiently waiting on the CC list 🥺

 

[catsflying]

Are the financial aid packages only sent to accepted applicants? I submitted my FASFA before the deadline but I’m still on CC and haven’t gotten my package

 

[Talldoctor96]

Yes you’ll only get it if accepted
