How are they going to waitlist me, accept me 5 days later, then give me a renewable 45k scholarship 2 days later

I’m jealous lol

 

[canijust]

I remember a bunch of people mentioning aid packages a few pages back on here.

So happy for you! i know how much you wanted this.

 

[btfreash]

Thanks!!!!!! Does anybody know if the financial aid packages will come before you put the deposit down or only after? Wondering if there is any value to playing coy for a few days (as if I didn’t already send an extremely desperate loi lmao)

Anyone have any idea of whether there will likely be a lot of waitlist movement for this school, or if its "over"? This is a longshot, but does anyone also know how many people are actually on the WL rn? Just trying to figure out if I should be holding out hope or not.

People are leaving the accepted group steadily, hold strong. I think a lot of people are waiting for waitlists at other schools

FYI my tour guide got in in mid June. This school runs so late in the cycle. It ain't over till it's over.

I might be wrong but isn't there CTE deadline by June 1st? If so, how could you get accepted after that since someone would have to break CTE contract or whatever it is

Wait thats crazy lol. I think that might've been an anomaly tho, pretty sure they're done interviewing by now

Yeah but some people haven’t gotten rejected yet pre II. I think because they’re a newer school a lot of people take other options over them. So especially in years past they had trouble with people dropping out last second for other options. That’s probably why they’re keeping the option open of more interviews/going back to people who haven’t gotten a post interview decision yet.

 

[Kelrilyn]

I interviewed in February and still haven’t received a post-II decision 🤷‍♀️

Does anyone know when the pre-matriculation checklist is due? I don't see any due dates in my portal... thanks in advance!

 

[SimpleMinded1]

I can't speak for the school but I would say its a safe bet that there most likely won't be any more IIs... probably?

[Peetz]

As of April 21st I was told, "At this moment, we have not yet closed the Admissions cycle and there is a possibility that more interviews may become available."

 

[ssdesigorl74]

[ssdesigorl74]

[Futuremed54321]

By any miraculous chance are they still interviewing?

At the end of the day I am not really certain (they did interview into june last cycle), but I wouldn't count on it.

 

[sillygoose59]

Has anyone who’s gotten off the waitlist recently been contacted for a financial aid package? I love everything about this school except for the 100k a year. Would love if that went down a notch 😭

 

[ploguap]

Did anyone negotiate merit scholarship with them ?

 

[TheHomelander]

Did anyone negotiate merit scholarship with them ?

I tried! They didn't budge for me

 

[deleted1130343]

Did you have an offer from another school to negotiate with?

 

[TheHomelander]

Did you have an offer from another school to negotiate with?

Yes, I had a ~1/2 tuition scholarship at a school of similar ranking as Hackensack but Hackensack never offered me any scholarship money so I have a feeling they were just willing to let me walk away. If they really wanted someone, they might negotiate but that's just a guess on my part
