Anyone heard anything yet about the financial aid or FAFSA from the admission office? 

Still waiting to hear back. I'm also waiting to hear back from SIS at AU on this, but hoping to hear back by the end of the week.

Fletcher is charming their way into my heart between the funding and the outreach from their students and faculty for sure. 

I'm pretty set on Fletcher at this point. 

I got in to GWU, American, Georgetown, and SAIS - but none of them have hit the level of Fletcher so far for me, in terms of funding or outreach. I'm increasingly excited about the coming year!

They have seriously been so personalized and lovely. I'm a semi-local MA applicant and a homeowner who can't move in the next year, so the only big downside to it is that it's significantly further away than my other local options and would mean a lot of time in the car for me / less time with my family. But I just love everything I've seen from them so far, so it may be worth it.

Is there a group or something I should be in on Facebook etc?

I got offered Work Study in my financial package and I have no idea what that looks like in reality. Any thoughts?

I'm still waiting on the FA info, would you mind sharing how you heard about your FA package? email or portal?

Hi there is a Facebook group: 

https://www.facebook.com/groups/fletcheraugust2021admittedstudents/?multi_permalinks=1474539579553958%2C1474211959586720%2C1473930772948172&notif_id=1616018087672784&notif_t=group_activity&ref=notif

Also, I received work study as well and I did work study in undergrad so I assume its similar. You'd probably need to seek out a job yourself through a portal or some resource that I am not entirely sure of yet. I got my job in undergrad through a job fair the first week and worked at the same office all four year, so that was easy enough.

Yes, Fletcher is really good at charming. That has been frequent feedback over the years. A lot of is due to how they have one of the stronger communities among the IR schools. 

The other is that they have to do charm to make up for their shortcomings. Marketing is powerful, but its important to see behind the marketing. There is always a darker side why things are so.

Oh yes I’ve read your post about their pitfalls.
