Were your or your child’s scholarship awards mentioned in your admissions letter or elsewhere? I suppose if the answer is that it was enclosed in the decision that I just didn’t get one.

Congratulations!! My daughter as well. Stats: 4.07W/3.78UW, test optional, Strong ECs. Does anyone know if all scholarships are in the acceptance letter?
Based on prior years, only certain large scholarships like full-tuition/full-ride/NMSF were awarded with admission. The rest came separately in January
Have there been any cases of an NMSF not getting a scholarship with admission? As an NMSF myself, I’m kind of baffled as to why I failed to qualify for any scholarship, but maybe there was some other guideline that I failed to meet?
Son got in today but we had applied ED? It appears he was accepted as EA …that happen to anyone else? Happy nonetheless!!!
son got in ED, 17k scholarship in financial aid letter, which was a big surprise
4.6 weighted, average ECs and around 1360, don’t remember exact score but close
Good luck everyone!
check financial aid letter
Don’t give up yet—it’s possible that they notified my daughter of her Dean’s scholarship because they had already processed her CSS. This is just a guess—but they said we had to fill out Fafsa to confirm the scholarship.
Just popping in to congratulate all those who got good news today I did my BA at Fordham (Rose Hill) many, many years ago and I still look back on those years are being truly transformative. I have since gotten advanced degrees from Georgetown and UC Berkeley, but it is Fordham that I remember as being the place where so many ideas were planted and cultivated by the excellent faculty and caring community. All these years later, some of my most treasured friends are people I met in Queens Court freshman year. I’m sure many of you have a difficult decision to make in the coming weeks, but I do hope you will consider Fordham. Go Rams

congrats to your D. same thing here to my D. do you know the deadline of submitting FAFSA?
I think it must just be “as soon as you can do it after Dec 31.” That must be why they’ve said “on a rolling basis”—because people won’t be able to get them in all at once.
