Haha yeah that's exactly it, my numbers are amazing....... :oops:. My application was more "holistic" heavy. Thanks for the kick. And yeah, Columbia was my 1A and NYU was my 1B. Why aren't you a fan of NYU? And I'm sure you'll get in. Tell them L.B. said so.

*Did not know there was a reply limit*
NYU has a bunch of students who aren't as smart as their egos let on. Their professors constantly say stupid shit. They let in all these child celebrities and children of celebs. Its a bit much.The law school-i'm indifferent about, but the undergrad rubs me entirely the wrong way. I knew a lot of students at NYU ug lmao

I hope I get in to Columbia, but I wont beat myself up too bad-if im not good enough. lol At first I thought I should have been honored to be waitlisted, but then I realized Columbia waitlists everyone.
Hmm I see. I'm guessing you're from NY? Went to NYU for ug?

Yeah, I feel you. Also, I didn't get waitlisted so *boom* they don't waitlist everyone. Just ask the Universe/God/Zeus (whichever applies) to hook you up with an acceptance.

Worse case scenario, you'll have a battle-buddy at Fordham. Best case, we'll be friendly rivals via Columbia and NYU.

Hi everyone, I was hoping you could help me out with a quick question I had. My status is still "Your Application is Complete." and there is nothing under Decision Status or Decision Status date. The current status date is 3/23.

However, I have a First Deposit due date of 5/5 and a Full Deposit due date of 6/1.

I didn't get any email at all, so I don't think I would have missed an acceptance email, but I'm not sure why the fees are up since it seems like the first round of deposits was due 4/18.

Anyone got any ideas? Do you think they just forgot to email me or maybe they'll email me tomorrow?

Thanks!

Hey it does look like you're accepted. If I were you, I would call them up or send in a polite email inquiring about it since your first deposit due date is 5/5.

As regards 4/18 deposit date, generally schools have different deposit dates for those accepted later (close to or after the first deposit date for others).
Congrats!

I applied to live in Wilshire Plaza, the off campus housing option they offer. It's expensive but convenient.

Craigslist or student housing if you can swing it. Make sure you sign a lease so you don't get kicked out in the middle of finals.

One calendar I looked at on the housing site said between June 5th and 9th and the other said late June/early July. Hopefully it's earlier.

Did everyone receive their decisions?
Mine is still UR...4/25. And I have deposit due on 5/15. If I deposit this money, would it affect their decisions?
I still have not heard back from some schools too...

If you have a deposit date for Fordham you were accepted. If you have a deposit due at another school and pay it, it will not affect Fordham's decision.

I haven't heard from Fordham, and when I checked the status, it doesn't have deposit date like any other accepted students :( . Do I have to take this as a rejection, or do I have to send email for status? Thank you

I just checked my application status and my application went complete on 3/13 but I don't have anything that says when the deposit is due, etc. Does this mean I was rejected?

Are a lot of people still waiting for a decision? Been complete since 3/2 with no movement or date changes.

Does anyone know how long it takes to be notified for any merit scholarships? First deposit is Friday but I was only accepted last Friday . I'm trying to decide between Fordham and a peer school so whether I get $$ is important .
