No Financial Aid Means Likely Rejection

I posted that question last night and I really don’t think anyone can use it to say whether someone is in or not at this early date. I went through all the ED posts and found a number of people that were asked for additional financial aid info 3 days before decisions were out. I was surprised when I found they were not admitted.

At this point it could be a couple of things. They are just starting to load the page with this link for all applicants and it will continue for the next week, or they are starting to load the pages for admitted applicants. The link was not active - it just showed. Someone else was able to see a scholarship - I have no clue on that one. And Mango commented that it happened the night before admittance to another University. Definitely no email of acceptance here so NYU is handling this differently.

This info is only good for future applicants - we won’t know if it means anything until acceptances come out (and even then schools change things!) Right now I think financial aid and admissions work very independently.
