I can't wait either! I have applied to many of the seven sisters and the suspense is killing me right now. Moho says 'on or before April 1" on ISIS. I hope it's different. Good luck everyone!

Hey, has anyone else's financial aid information disappeared? I know the RD applicants reported this happening but just wondering if that means for transfers our decisions may be getting close too? All my info for submitted documentation has gone... I have no documents tab.

thenaturalista

Hmmm that's interesting! I purposely decided to give it a rest tonight. I'm on there a million times! I had no idea the RD said so also. What gives?? What do you think that's about?? I'll check in the morning and write back... That's funny bc I saw some of my fin aid info on smith & I still don't know their answer.. Thru the real mail on 3/27 apparently...

thenaturalista

Ok.. My fin aid info/document tabs have all disappeared from the screen. Waiting & waiting. Wishes I knew when it was coming exactly!!

Anyone hear anything? thenaturalista--you said something about 3/27? Which was today... and I haven't gotten anything.

I just checked ISIS a little while ago and I got in!!! Best of luck to everyone else (: I'm so excited!!!

haha so many girls here from the Smith board! I didn't complete my application to MHC (visited and decided not to apply) so I wasn't expecting a decision at all but I just checked my email and got notification that I've been accepted! Has this happened to anyone else?

I got in too, I can't believe it! I was not expecting to have a decision to make, I'm compeletely surprised. I'm just nervous it's not going to be a possibility since I checked d financial aid and my expected parental contribution is 34000. My parents aren't helping me pay for school at all and I don't know if I"ll be able to find a loan without a cosigner. I'm figuring my package from Smith is going to be similar

Cwhaticando

PeggyOlsen--I think my aid package is similar to that, as was estimated on collegeboard. I'm hoping it'll be decent... even if I have to take out a decent loan I'll do it for whatever college I choose. I'm not giving up the chance to go someplace amazing like Mount Holyoke or a different seven sister!

Is there any way you can talk to MHC about fin aid since your parents are unwilling to help? I know it gets complicated when parents are able but just don't want to help, but it can't hurt to ask.

PeggyOlsen15

Thanks cwhaticando I think I might try to call and talk to someone at the financial aid office. I did write about the situation in the special circumstances portion of the css profile, but it can't hurt right? Hopefully I'll be able to work something out, like you said whatever it takes!

I just declined (going to Smith!) so I hope one of you wait listed ladies gets my spot! Best of luck to everyone, wherever you end up
