Does anyone know where we should send a LOI? Unsure if I should upload it to the update portal or not.

That's where I uploaded mine! (And the admissions person mentioned it during my acceptance call so I know they got it) They get an email when you upload things there so no need to let them know that you sent one.

Do we know when merit scholarship info will be released? Are we required to submit FAFSA in order to be eligible?

 

[premedmidwest]

I have been in contact with the financial aid office and if you do FAFSA + the Pritzker FA application they should release initial offers on 3/17

 

[Zwenx]

Is there an accepted students facebook group?

 

[beepboop49]

not that i know of…

Where is the Pritzker FA application?

 

[premedmidwest]

Where is the Pritzker FA application?

They should send instructions in an email post-A

 

[deleted1118591]

Does anyone know if Pritzker matches scholarship offers from other schools? (Not that I have any lmao)

 

[deleted1118591]

Sometimes depends on how much they want you to attend

Ok but it's not a policy or anything that they don't? Just asking because the other school I interviewed at straight up told us on our interview day that they don't match offers

With one acceptance at this point you have no bargaining power. AMCAS schools can now see whether you have other acceptances or not. I don’t know where you’re going with this question, but don’t snatch defeat from the jaws of victory

I'm pretty sure CYMS only sends aggregate data until April 30? Also I'm just asking because I'm stuck at home quarantining bored out of my mind with nothing to do except wait for my acceptance packet and my other post-II decision and it's a question other people are likely to have, I may as well be the one to ask it so other people have that info

Lmao wendy_edgeworth was just asking. Many other post-II decisions have yet to come out, so they may eventually be in a position where they could bargain

Even with just the aggregate data, if you were to “innocently” ask your school if they would match a scholarship offer from another school, they could look and see @wendy_edgeworth has no other acceptances, what is she trying to pull here?”

That's why I'm asking the good people of SDN if they happen to know the policy and not the admissions office 😉

I don’t think they were gonna try to scam UChicago into giving them a scholarship but go off I guess😂😂

they match scholarships sometimes they do not have any policies against it from what I know .

 

[nrm9833]

Second look here is April 13th right?

 

[deleted1118591]

It's that weekend for sure, someone said earlier it was the 13th-14th but when they called me they mentioned they had activities planned for the 14th and possibly the 15th? Sounds like the exact schedule is tbd

 

[DistantMedStudent]

R this Friday. RIP me but congrats to everyone on WL/ who got an A!

 

[montelukast]

WL last friday – huge congrats to the A's!

 

[deleted1140587]

Anybody know when financial aid packages will come out? And any info on like a FB group or GroupMe?

 

[dailyescitalopram500mg]

Anyone know how many people are in the fb group/groupme?

76, but it only was published a few days ago so more people will maybe join

to answer your first question @user948502

 

[pokesalmonfish]

Any update on the # of people in the FB group

 

[deleted1118591]

Any update on the # of people in the FB group

94
The join rate has slowed down/stopped so I don't expect that number to get much bigger

 

[premedmidwest]

just got a scholarship email and I am unbelievably happy...literal dream come true😭😭😍

 

[deleted1118591]

If we didn't get an email are we not getting a scholarship :/ or are they going out gradually

Mine came along with the rest of my financial aid information - I think it’s coming gradually as they process aid apps!!
