ertanner Posted March 23, 2009 Posted March 23, 2009 Has anyone received financial aid information from GSPIA? I was admitted last Tuesday, and I am very anxious to know if I am receiving any money.
lauren20 Posted March 25, 2009 Posted March 25, 2009 Congrats on GSPIA! I was accepted there as well... all I know about $$ is that the letter I received (viewed online in my "Apply Yourself" account) said that scholarship offers would be mailed in late March. and it also said that you will ONLY receive a letter if you are offered funding. so I am also playing the waiting game. please post a message if you receive a scholarship offer!
ertanner Posted March 31, 2009 Author Posted March 31, 2009 Just wanted to bump this - I still have not heard, but in their "accepted student chat" last Wednesday they said decisions had not yet been made.
lauren20 Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 Yeah, I called them last week and they said that they were going to make offers this week and that award letters would be posted to our online accounts the same way that the acceptance letters were. If I don't receive anything by Friday, I'm going to call again and see if they've been sent out. Thanks for staying in touch and let me/us know if you hear anything else! Do you know yet which school you are leaning toward?
ertanner Posted April 1, 2009 Author Posted April 1, 2009 I am definitely WANTING to go to Elliot - but money is kind of looming darkly over my head.
lauren20 Posted April 1, 2009 Posted April 1, 2009 good news!!! I got an e-mail from GSPIA this morning for a $12,000 scholarship (tuition) for the first year, and it's renewable for the second. It feels good to not be in a constant state of "freak-out" and checking my e-mail every 5 seconds. I saw that someone posted that they received a funding offer from GSPIA last night (posted under another topic), and my friend also received an e-mail this morning. So it seems that they may be sending out the notifications at slightly different times. good luck to everyone!
ertanner Posted April 1, 2009 Author Posted April 1, 2009 Ah well...this is a little disappointing. I suppose I shouldn't feel too bad, as I am straight out of undergrad, we're in a recession, and I am only going for a masters. But this sucks!
ertanner Posted April 1, 2009 Author Posted April 1, 2009 Okay - scratch that! I just got a letter too!
lauren20 Posted April 2, 2009 Posted April 2, 2009 awesome ertanner!!!! congrats!! do you think you'll choose pitt?
