Thanks stargirl08. I called a few days ago too. You submitted your documents on April 2nd? That means that they are just now reviewing it. Don't panic yet. I, on the other hand, have given up all hopes.

i heard that gates pays for everying except student asset and maybeparent contribution? which will be prolly 0 if your efc is 0.

AHHHHHHHHH i sent my stuff in all on the 8th so i guess that was pretty late... but I can't help rushing to the mailbox everyday... and being disappointed that nothing is there.

loosinduh - Congrats! Where are you located? And did you mean you received your packet yesterday? USPS does not operate on Sundays.
