That's helpful. Do you remember hearing anything else? I uploaded some proof long term residency for it, but never heard anything else. Thanks!
ETA: hear anything between applying and being given the award

Nope.
Yes. Admitted Monday early, email was sent yesterday. I started on it immediately, but having to include all of my parents' information is delaying things considerably
T-15 days until my NYU offer expires...
ETA: You mean the email to apply for financial aid, right?

Wait... I just realized that I haven't even gotten a packet in the mail yet. Is that normal? Anyone who was admitted last week receive that?

I got an email yesterday saying I should expect it soon (in a response to my address change).

I haven't gotten anything in the mail yet either. Received the financial aid email recently and started filling out the application, but I need to wait for my parents' signed tax docs.

If I had to gauge my chances of committing to H, they would be ~95.
Haven't heard from S, did not apply to Y, haven't heard about full scholly at NYU, and the other schools are not offering as much as H is. Aside from the year long winter weather, I am stoked! I am also excited to meet all of you!

Committed last night!

I wanted to wait til after ASW, but I had an exploding scholly offer elsewhere that expires today so I bit the bullet.
No confirmation yet though, and my status checker hasn't updated. Hurry Harvard!!!

Woah you. A full scholarship to NYU? I thought this was unheard of if not a named one...

Ok, well I'm
technically still waiting on Y and S, but my heart knows what it wants. Plus I've been telling people I'm heading to HLS in the fall. So in all but name, I'm committed

Haha I am in a very similar position. I told a couple close friends that I really just want Yale to go ahead and reject me so that I can commit to H without any regrets. I have been telling most people I am going to H in the fall, I just haven't actually enrolled yet.

I'd like to interrupt this conversation to note that I still have not received a book from HLS. Admitted 2/11. I feel slighted.
