@xMegancx i think they do email only certain people who is outstanding
Congratulations to those who have been admitted! !!
Just curious-- can anyone else see their financial aid award for fall 2016 when you log in?
Do you guys know what they mean by “outstanding” when sending out the acceptance letter? Is this group “outstanding” because of grades, portfolio, essays or general performance?
@fraaguirre16 I think what they mean by “outstanding” is who they think has the strongest applications.
@xMegancx Oh ok, it makes sense. Thanks!
HI I am a transfer international student. I have applied for upper division i.e. 2 yr BS program. I had my credits evaluated by WES last week I heard from the counselor that I need to take the CLEP exam for the English COmposition. But I do not have a test center in INDIA. Did anyone else here the same. I understand the exam needs to be taken only by students in US and not international students. Also as per the website the missing crediits can be taken for registering for the college. Please help share insights.
Anyone hear back yet? I’m anxiously waiting for my letter
Hey I applied for Fall 2016 AAS Fashion Design. I started my application in November 2015 and sent in everything. However, because of issues with WES with my transcripts coming from 3 different countries, my application was completed at the beginning of March.
I have a 3.67 GPA for 10th and 11 th grade, and I am doing the IB.
My application status : Freshman Advanced Standing.
Would I find out April 1st as well? Or will it be delayed?
@ABehera Same thing happened to me. But looking at the forums of 2014&2015… I think we shall get to find out after April 1st.
Looking at previous forums on here, it looks like FIT starts mailing out decision letters around 3/18. I would think the earliest mailed letters should be received in about a week.
I saw many people get their acceptance letter in Facebook . Are they got their decision letter via mail or email? if they go only email, is it because they are outstanding applicants?
@fitloveya the people that got emailed are outstanding applicants. I don’t think anyone got letters yet
again was anyone asked to take CLEP exam and considered as incomplete application? please reply. did anyone have a chance to talk to the counselor?
@BarbieHer Hey, I called FIT… we’ll get it soon after April 1st apparently.
Does anyone know what soon after means?
I found some people got their packet in Facebook. Maybe because they are outstanding applicants. Is there anybody got packet from FIT?
If I were to drop a class will that effect me getting into FIT? P.S I’m going to be a transfer student
@Desikking It really depends on your overall academic stance, how your doing in class right now and if there is any possible way to bring your grade up. When a school sees you dropped a class no matter the reason it doesn’t look good on a transcript. I would suggest trying to stick the class out and put more time/effort into it to boost your grade. If there really isn’t a way to bring it up your grade you’d rather want a Withdrawal grade than an F on your transcript.
I called FIT since my application was completed really late. However, they said my application under review. Does that mean I’ll get a decision on April 1st? or later?
FIT is the last place i need to hear from and my top choice. I hate WES and the requirement for it. It delays everything.
@ABehera I called FIT today. I submitted everything in time to meet priority but they said all the decision letters will be sent out next month which is April. Aww I’m confused because I snooped 2015 fall applicant thread and i found most of people received their letter in March tho.
