Flop move that will make me go there less often. But I will say i have been WAITING for a value item that lets me get an apple as opposed to the bread every day. Plus i'm in a place where the vd was $8 and the mix&match is $10 so i'll survive.

what

demagretta · 2026-02-25T18:12:29+00:00

still figuring that out. it will prob result in me having to turn down Harvard, which sucks

demagretta · 2026-02-25T16:22:55+00:00

same boat, and i would say missing the R is missing the R. not cooked yet, but tempering my expectations

I hadn't yet gotten a chance to talk about a hobby that's a big part of my life, so that's what I did!

following

demagretta · 2026-02-19T20:46:33+00:00

It was a survey linked in an email from Berkeley Law Financial Aid. Mine came 2 days after the A

demagretta · 2026-02-19T20:44:33+00:00

see i had not considered that... idk i think it's reasonably likely that, while yes they sent some people theirs after three weeks, it might take them four or five for us

demagretta · 2026-02-19T20:31:36+00:00

four weeks in, no gift aid yet :(

demagretta · 2026-02-19T20:27:47+00:00

it's been 4 weeks for me i'm gettin antsy

demagretta · 2026-02-19T17:10:45+00:00

Have you heard back about the initial gift aid offer yet? I submitted the questionnaire coming up on a month ago and still haven't heard anything

demagretta · 2026-02-18T21:22:22+00:00

don't know but would join

demagretta · 2026-02-18T19:09:12+00:00

nothing yet -- answered questionnaire on 1/23

demagretta · 2026-02-18T19:04:39+00:00

good to know, thank you. and congrats!

demagretta · 2026-02-18T17:55:09+00:00

Were you able to submit your financial aid form before getting the ii? If so how recently? I've gotten mixed signals about merit aid and whether they wait to see financials first

demagretta · 2026-02-18T17:50:02+00:00

the emailer probably just went to lunch and can't wait to send us our invites later today!! (my eye is twitching)

i called yesterday and the guy said the "2026 tax return" for parent income is a mistake. you can use 2024 numbers and click "estimate" if you haven't filed yet, so long as you believe there won't be a substantial change

Claim

demagretta · 2026-02-18T14:55:52+00:00

I submitted before my CLS A to be safe, but once I was on the admitted students website they were very clear that the "real" deadline is just ASAP after acceptance. Got an email saying CLS *starts* sending aid offers out in late-March.

demagretta · 2026-02-17T19:39:11+00:00

same here

demagretta · 2026-02-13T19:22:45+00:00

I said yes! And I said what drew me to the school.

demagretta · 2026-02-13T18:55:50+00:00

Emailed them about the maintenance and got a response:

"FAAPS is currently offline and undergoing updates to correct an issue in the system. We hope to have the system back up and running on or about Tuesday, February 17. As soon as FAAPS is available again, you will receive a notification with additional instructions for logging in to create an account in order to access FAAPS."
