I received this as an e-mail today. The e-mail was titled “Your [University Name Here] Financial Aid Packet and Informational Webinar”.



Dear [name],

Financial aid notification letters for students who have filed the 2012-13 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) are now being mailed. All other packets will be mailed within the next few weeks.

The University is hosting an online information session on Sunday, March 25, at 7:00 p.m. CDT to provide an overview of the packet and answer any general questions you may have. You can attend the session at link.

Once you have received your University financial aid package and have had time to look through it, feel free to contact my office at phone # with specific questions. Your admission counselor will be contacting you to discuss your packet and to answer any questions you may have.

I hope you will join us for the webinar on Sunday, March 25, as you learn more about the financial aid process and what happens next.

Sincerely,
Director of Financial Aid



I haven’t received an official letter of acceptance yet or a phone call. But I just received this in my e-mail this morning. Is this a good sign? Is this an indicator that I was accepted? Why would they send me a financial aid packet if I wasn’t? For transfer students, there isn’t a way to check your application status online.
