CBS' website states that they will admit fellowship/scholarship information in mid-Feb and again in April. My guess is if you haven't heard back yet, you've missed the mid-Feb boat. I figure once everyone's financial aid information is compiled (was due by March 1), they'll look into needs-based and other fellowships which will be released in April. From what I've heard through the grapevine, CBS is pretty stingy on merit-based financial aid, but is usuall pretty good with needs-based. So hopefully we'll get some good news in a month.
As a result, everyone is just waiting around til April to hear back on the next round of awards.

I'm admitted and I asked the adcom about this very same thing. They said that they send you an email (starting mid-Feb all the way through April) and that there's a status change to your application (yes, the same place as your decision page). They have the details of the fellowship there.
There were 2 people who received small fellowships in mid Feb, and they said they got a phone call and then a subsequent email.
Regarding need-based scholarships, you have to have finished the process by March 1st or 2 weeks from the admit email. The process involves submitting your FAFSA, 2011 tax return, filling out CBS's own financial needs document, along with one from the college board. You also have to send them copies of your birth certificate...
I would say finishing the need-based scholarship process took me about 5 hours in total, not including the tax return.. at least the scholarships were to get some money, and not pay a bunch back lol.
