I submitted my application on time but I was hoping to get a fee waiver, I waited for a month, then I emailed them again and they replied that they don't provide any. I paid the fees in January and now my status says, "Your application was not complete by the deadline." Was my application even considered?

astral stream
#

although they donā€™t provide fee waivers to international applicants and they make it quite clear on their website

what did they say

zealous shore
#

I wrote: "I am an RD applicant who submitted the application before the deadline. I paid the application fees late; thus, my status shows "Your application was not complete by the deadline." Does this mean that my application was not considered? When should I expect to hear back?"

They replied: "You would need to check your status check page regarding your admissions status."

my status does says complete though

shy yew

in a meeting about it rnā€”you can only receive a housing contract after you commit

finaid packages come out late March (some before, maybe) if youā€™ve submitted all of your docs

chilly breach
#

oh i see thanks

shy yew
#

someone IK committed and has hers, though

chilly breach
#

does it matter when i commit tho

shy yew
#

Nope

#

Only when you submit the housing app

sage sky

#

An applicant for admission should submit an appeal only if there is new, significant and/or compelling information that was not previously provided at the point of application; disagreement with an applicantā€™s admissions decision, alone, is not a valid reason for submitting an appeal.

You canā€™t request it. You go into ut undeclared cns ur first year, and you get the exact same classes as a cs major. If you pass all of ur classes, you get guaranteed cs major soph year
