Good luck to everyone!!! Now it's the long wait.

Lol OK so mine lists the budget and my need, not the award, but at least the ball is rolling. Check back on the site later for the final awards packet

Hey everyone! I just wanted to let you all know that the financial aid info is now available in CUNYfirst

Thanks! They removed the hold on mine as well, so I am hoping that the link not being available is due to my stuff being processed.

I tried doing the meningitis thing on CUNY first but it isn't showing up the way the instructions say. I called and emailed my old school yesterday and asked them to fax it. How did you find out that they were processed?

Hi, Has anyone here sent in the immunization materials or the meningitis acknowledgement form?

I am reading "are prisons obsolete" by Angela Davis "discipline and punish" by Michel Foucault "how to see a work of art in total darkness" by Darby English "habeas viscus" by Alexander weheliye I plan on watching an online course on literary theory and brushing up on some art theory texts during the summer

MLK, I am curious whether you feel the same way about Studio Visit magazine or New American Painting

Yes, I did accept their offer for admission. It must be weird for people that are juggling multiple offers be cause they seem to wait really late to let you know about your funding or financial aid package. Yes, it was a scholarship from the Scholarship & welfare fund. It's funded by Alumni. I will be attending in the fall.

Hey everyone. I know it's late but I wanted to post this because there has been a lot of talk here about Hunter not giving any $. Yesterday I received a scholarship that is two years full ride at in state tuition rates. They also offer supplemental funding outside of financial aid. Not about me boasting I just want to spread the word...when it comes to hunter never offering $ ... Don't believe the hype!

I finally got my snail mail rejection letter from VCU today, very late in application season.

You're welcome Madhini

Madhini I just created my CUNY first account. Here is some information posted inside that may help. Students: If you experience any problems with claiming or accessing your CUNYfirst accounts or with using specific pages and menu items, please contact the Student Help Desk at 212-650-3624 or studenthelpdesk@hunter.cuny.edu.

.....blah I got rejected too

Oh my goodness when did you guys get it? (mad dash to the e-mail box)

Congratulations. When did you get the notification?

Thanks!!

I'm kinda late to this post so I figured I would add my website to the mix. Please let me know what you think My artwork is a critique of destructive economic power dynamics within urban communities. I have chosen to use a tobacco company that holds a 78% market share within the black community as a demonstrative and metaphoric example of the economic forces that profit from destruction within the community. Design elements derived from West African bocio sculptures are used to compose images of power objects as a means of empowerment and change. Advertisements for the tobacco company that are aimed at the urban communities are ritually cut and sutured as a way to illustrate the will to overturn present power dynamics and create new ones. Ubiquitous discarded cigarette boxes are incorporated as a way to invoke the presence of community members as consumers. The work also refers to neoclassical busts, previously used to link ethnographic types to power dynamics. The use of black granite and marble busts operates as a signifier for identity. Assembled, these elements operate as power objects to aid in the shedding of what Ngugi wa Thiong’o called the colonized mind. www.teliottmansa.com

Thanks!!!

Madhini Can you share the link to the page on their website?

Madhini, were you accepted for the Spring or Fall semester? It should say on the acceptance letter on the application page. That's kind of weird. I didn't get that email. Just one more thing to freak out about.

I think if you consider a school to be not very good, it's not worth it even if it's free.

Is it me, or has the application process been a long series of waiting for xyz. No matter when on this year's calendar I have been, there has always been something I am waiting to hear from the school about. At this point I don't know what I would do if I wasn't waiting for an email or phone call.

Yes Carter, I already accepted their offer. Will be going in the fall.

This is the fund that I have heard they are trying to decide on now. http://www.hunter.cuny.edu/alumni/giving-to-hunter/scholarship-welfare-fund
