Has anyone who interviewed in January heard back yet? I know they told us March or April but still just curious

 

[letsgetlucky]

Does anyone know the last available interview day for UIC? I haven't heard anything back yet, and I'm curious if I even still have a chance at an interview.

Complete your FAFSA asap and ensure you include the school code for the school you will be attending. The school will then send you a financial aid letter indicating your awarded loan amounts, which you can accept or decline.

Thanks, I completed fafsa a while ago. Do you know if it is still too early to receive the award letter?

Ah, I'm not sure then. It may vary by school. Sorry I can't be more help than that

 

[Hlcurci]

Has anyone else received their award letter for financial aid? I got it 2 days ago and then yesterday it was “revised” and now it says I don’t have any finiancial aid available for next year. Just curious if anyone else has this issue

 

[malikhind]

I was rejected a few weeks ago after asking for update on my app since I hadn't heard anything since summer :/

 

[chaseafterthedream]

Any waitlist movement?

 

[DentStudent45]

I got an 18 AA and a 2.9 gpa........Instate

Is it okay if I DM you?

 

[hardy123!]

Has anyone recently received an acceptance or a rejection? Just trying to figure out if there is any movement in the admissions process

Hi I was wondering how you got an interview? What did you do to make yourself stand out? Thank you!

 

[DentStudent45]

Yes, I interviewed 11/14

what were your stats if you dont mind sharing? Very interested in going to UIC but feel as if I do not have the stats!

 

[toothfairy151923]

IS, 3.3 GPA, 20 AA. These numbers aren't the highest but the rest of my application was really strong in my opinion.

 

[DentStudent45]

Can I message you? I have similar stats and was wondering what to do to make my application stronger before I apply. Also, your DAT score is really good!!
