Nothing was there for me on the federal aid site either, but I did some poking around and if you go to Student Services Online (ssol.columbia.edu), and then choose Financial Aid > Loan History, it shows the loans I applied for, which provided some reassurance that CLS got all my paperwork and the loans will be coming my way eventually.
Well shit mine isn't showing anything there either. Guess I have to call tomorrow .
Same boat and you ben, also gonna call tomorrow to make sure that all the paperwork is in order on my end at least

Same. I called today and was told I hadn't done the grant data form which apparently was sent out months ago...oops. For others' benefit I'll list all the things you should have done by now, according to the person I spoke with:

-all the stuff that was due in like May (fin aid questionaire, tax returns, etc)
-MPN at studentloans.gov
-Federal loan request form (emailed with scholly info)
-entrance counseling at studentloans.gov
-grant data form (emailed 5/12, or at least that's when I got it)

Note that Columbia does not use the grad PLUS loan application available on studentloans.gov. Also there are two separate MPNs, one for Stafford and one for grad PLUS

Has anyone moved in yet? Moving into a UAH apartment tomorrow and would love to discuss how the whole setting up internet/secretly moving in furniture on weekends thing works.

Just moved in, spend most of my time looking for parking -or- convincing my dog even though she's stuck on a leash, her life is still worth living.

Anyone doing anything, ever?

On the Housing Portal I can't seem to click on the tabs that say "Housing Assignment" or "Tenant Profile" and such. Is there something up with the portal or should I be looking elsewhere?

Moved in on Wednesday, but I think that my apartment only just achieved minimum livability yesterday :lol: so nothing too crazy yet, mainly trips to Costco, Target, Bed Bath and Beyond, etc. But last night I went down to Brooklyn for the BRIC concert series in Prospect Park! Would never see anything like it in LA. Also swung by Ample Hills Creamery, best ice cream ever. Highly recommend.
