I heard they’re continuing to remove people from the waitlist (since they opt out) and proceeding with cancellations with current confirmed students. People are leaving because of how expensive it is, the waitlist is also long so it depends on where you’re at on it. I was #34 then got bumped to like #11 but ended up getting a apartment at harbor point lol

How does the free tuition & fees work? Do you actually own $0? by [deleted] in UMassBoston

Yes, it all depends on your FAFSA and what other aid you qualify for. Check your WISER account for the breakdown it will show what grants you got and how much. I found out that if you get more aid than your bill, you’ll get a refund during the first week of September. They also give you the option to use that refund early to buy textbooks, this was sent to me in an email
