Brown group me: GroupMeIs there a Brown group chat? Would love to chat with other people considering the program
Did you just email him and request the deposit fee be waived?Actually, this was for Hopkins
For any JHU folks, Paul Whong had offered this option during a Q&A on Admitted Day, so I just emailed him with my request
I wasn't waitlisted, but I was denied/rerouted by my first choice (and oddly third choice) concentration before finally being accepted to my second. Apps are forwarded to the next choice and reviewed by default, so no need to email to start the process if thats the case. It does suck it's so close to the deadline- for that reason alone, maybe shooting a quick email about when you can expect a decision is appropriateJust got waitlisted by Emory today, and my app has been forwarded to my second choice of concentration. Anyone's been waitlisted this year? Should I send them an email or just wait? ...
Yeah, I first prefaced the request by briefly explaining my financial situation and how the waiver would help!Did you just email him and request the deposit fee be waived?
Thank you so much for the info and your kind words! I will shoot an email tomorrow to ask about the timeline, and hopefully, I will still get into my dream schoolI wasn't waitlisted, but I was denied/rerouted by my first choice (and oddly third choice) concentration before finally being accepted to my second.

crossing fingers for you! 💙
I just heard back this morning and did not receive any extra aid. Was hoping for something as my original offer was only loans but I officially declined Emory today as well.i sent an appeal for more aid at emory but still haven’t heard back yet. as anyone been successful with this? I know i’m going but i don’t want to officially accept until i hear back because i want to use my decision as leverage but at this point i’m not sure if that doesn’t matter
I amIs anyone still waiting to hear about financial aid? I haven't heard from Vanderbilt yet
If we are waitlisted I don’t get why they can’t just inform us of that... it’s clear we’re on some internal waitlist but leaving us in the dark about that 2 days before commitment day is so dirty 😭remember when ucla said they'd let us know by monday...and then didn't... ah-ha-ha

I emailed them again, and they said we'll receive them today. Meanwhile, uci has emailed me like 8 times in the last 3 days alone to get me to commit. why is ucla like thisssssIf we are waitlisted I don’t get why they can’t just inform us of that... it’s clear we’re on some internal waitlist but leaving us in the dark about that 2 days before commitment day is so dirty 😭
Yes!! Super worried that I'll make the wrong decision of where to go. I sometimes even worry that I'm making the wrong decision to get an MPH.Is anyone else (whether you've committed to a program or not) feeling last minute jitters? Cold feet? Freaking out? Cause whew
I also got a May 1st extension at my top two programs while waiting to see if I get off of Columbia's waitlist... but between the schools I've already been accepted to, I don't think I would have been able to decide in two days lolThankfully some programs let me extend the commitment date until May 1st which gives me some more room to decide... anyone else in this position too?
Same here. I feel like if I wait any longer, I may lose my spot somewhere 😬Thankfully some programs let me extend the commitment date until May 1st which gives me some more room to decide... anyone else in this position too?
CONGRATS!!! That wait was crazy, can't imagine having the patience to hear back this late lol.IN AT UCLA EPI MY DREAM SCHOOL!! Im ecstatic

For people who weren’t awarded any financial aid. What are your other options?

Check with @mackeral if the whole estranged relative thingy worked out. I am pretty sure he/she would have found one, had it not been for social distancing. too bad, a lot of people did not come out of the woodwork because of it!!!
i’m literally praying that biden extends covid relief so my loans wont make interestFor people who weren’t awarded any financial aid. What are your other options?
