Northwestern c/o 2020 WAITLIST Forum

So does everyone have June 2nd deadline to get CSS and essays in?

What essays?

scholly requires essays brah

The instructions that I got mentioned no essays whatsoever

There's a scholarship application form you need to submit separately, which includes two 300-500 word essays. It's on the admitted students website.

The financial aid email lists a scholarship and grant supplemental application to fill out in addition to css, also its available on asw under financial aid

[StopLawying]

It should be in the instructions on the financial aid email if you have to do it

There was no mention of essays in the email we got, but on the admitted students website, under the header "financial aid", there's a scholarship application form which includes 2 essays. Just wondering if that's something that needs to be filled out also by ppl who got off waitlist.

Has someone called regarding this? I plan on calling them early Monday morning. Hopefully, we don't have to do the essays as people who get off the waitlist.

Yea, I saw no mention of essays anywhere in the instructions. I don't think they're making waitlist admits do essays for scholarships. But I'm not positive. I just thought they would've said that in the email if they wanted us to do them

Let us know the word, valiant knight

Are they even open today? I'm calling the financial aid office just in case, but no one's picking up.

Contacted admissions earlier, and they responded saying we only have to do FAFSA and CSS. And if you are not applying for federal loans, it is only CSS.

Congrats to everyone who got in off the waitlist last Thursday! Unfortunately I was not one of them, but I'm still hoping. If you can, plz do those of us hoping for NU with every fiber of their beings a solid and keep us updated if you choose not to accept the offer!

I called Fin aid to ask a question about my CSS and FAFSA and they said they would email me if there were any problems at my northwestern email address and to know my northwestern ID number. I have no idea what this is and can't find it anywhere in my old emails or documents? does anyone know anything about this?

What? They seem to be contacting me via my regular email address. I don't think they use your other email, no?

I have no idea I'm really confused. I emailed admissions to find out where I can find my email address and whatever

I just received several emails regarding setting up a NetID and NU Law email address. I think they say they will only communicate important school info through that email. I guess they are using this to gauge our interests, since I don't know why they can't just send it to my regular address.

No one has heard back from financial aid? Just received the very cute moleskine NU notebook that I will keep as a souvenir. IF NU has actually gotten that super generous endowment it mentions in the admission letter, I wonder what's taking so long.

I held off signing my lease. They better do something quick

Yeah, me too - and I'm afraid there would be people taking my spot at my apartment complex in Durham. I got a pretty good deal, and I'm worried other people are applying for the same apartment for the lower price. But I believe their director of fin aid/scholarships is coming back from a break today. So fingers crossed for later today or Tuesday.

Emailed them and was told they are reviewing fin aid/scholarship info this week, and they will have a decision towards the end of this week. Sounds like Friday or the following Monday to me.

Wow, that gives us little time to make a decision.

Yeah, I know. But I guess you can argue that and try to get more time for yourself. To be clear, they said they are getting back to ME later this week, you might get it earlier than I do. When do we have till? I thought it's June 15?

Wouldn't mind hearing back later this week, but next week would make things tough. Did you call or email?
