UChicago Class of 2020 Applicant Thread

@NotVerySmart How did you find out that UChicago is only giving you Stafford loans? I can’t locate the financial aid information page that specifically pertains to me! :confused:

Accepted!!! received another offer from umich in the last hour!

Best of luck to all!

@SZCheri Alright. Nice to see another UChicago + UMich kid here on CC. Congratulations on your acceptances, and we hope you’ll stick around.

Accepted! International student from Brazil :slight_smile: GPA 3.6 (not official, as my school does not issue one), SAT 2120
Still can’t believe my eyes >.< didn’t get any scholarships though, so it will be tough :confused:

@awesomesauce55 A link to financial aid info should be below your acceptance letter.

accepted! does anyone know why there is no financial aid award showing up?

Deferred…International Student from Jamaica. Gpa: 4.0 (UW)…SAT: 2010…Congrats to everyone who was accepted! I was expecting a denial…do you guys know like the % denied or % deferred?

@NotVerySmart

This is all I see at the bottom of the letter:

The following letters are available for this account:
Decision Letter - December 18, 2015 (displayed)
Invitation - December 18, 2015

Am I even on the right page? I cannot see a link to financial aid anywhere! :confused:
So sorry to bug you about this!

I GOT IN!!! :slight_smile: Absolutely shocked. :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

^ Awesome!!!

deferred lol rip

Deferred! I’m trying to stay hopeful, but I’m still really disappointed. In case anyone wants to know: 4.0 UW GPA, former TASPer, ACT 35

Deferred. Do you guys know the acceptance rate after being deferred?

I got in!!!

approximately 10% of all deferred students get in…according to this Chicago tumblr page (I don’t know how accurate it is)

Just got accepted! A few questions for other accepted students:

  1. What is a "University Scholar"?
  2. Any ideas about when we get updated for merit scholarships like CPS and Stamp? This is one of UChicago's really unique points.

Congrats @jarrett211 !!! Glad to see a Penn deferral buddy get into Chicago :slight_smile:

I got the University Scholar Award too! I’m so excited!

Deferred(3.4 UW and 32 ACT). Was expecting worse so not too disappointed!
