I think it takes a few days, but you can always email them about it or call and they'll shoot it to you.

Nope, nothing yet.

Do people just not finish their LSN data for FSU, or is the school far more selective about who gets scholarships than who gets in?

I sent a negotiation e-mail on February 19th. Receiving no response, I e-mailed back on March 12th to assure they received the e-mail. They e-mailed back the same day saying that the committee was making initial scholarship awards only at this time, but that they will be meeting at the end of March to review requests for reconsideration of awards. That way, they will have a better idea of who has rejected offers and how much money they have left to work with. So if you're going to try and negotiate, do it soon so that the committee will reconsider your award.

Yeah, I misread previous posts about that and thought everyone said they got it the same day. I called the Office of Student Affairs and the woman I spoke with was very nice and told me I should be getting the email in the next couple of weeks. Thanks for the response, though.

Who is going to ASD next Friday?
And if anyone is going from the Central Florida area, do you want to drive up together? I don't mind driving but I am most likely spending the night there and have to leave Tallahassee by 10:30, 11 to be back in Orlando by 2 on Saturday for work.

I wasn't thinking. We should have had a TLS meet up. Lol

What are your thoughts after today? They made my "automatic" UF decision a little harder to make now...

We should have haha. Theres still UF ASD tho. I liked FSU but idk it's hard between FSU and UF. They're very close...

Is the scholly app only a need-based app or are there two separate ones for merit and need?

For those of you who were admitted: Did you ALL get a phone call?

I checked today and they said they made a decision and will send it out via mail, 5 days ago. I worry that since I did not receive a phone call like others on this thread, I am denied.

It's one application for both need and merit if I recall correctly.

Did any one else's current status date disappear? My status has been application complete since January 12, 2015, but today the date went away. Anyone have any idea what this could mean?

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
