<p>How long will it take for the Cal Grant and Federal Pell Grant to say “confirmed?” The unconfirmed status is kinda worrying me lol.</p>
<p>I got the exact same as wwlink except my work study is for $1500 and will be given a Perkins loan instead of Hawk. Does anyone know the difference?</p>
<p>All of the work study programs pay the same, but some give more hours than others (thus the $$ difference). </p>
<p>The nice thing about the Perkins loan is you have a 10 month grace period but you pay 5% interest. The hawk loan has no grace period, but it’s interest free. </p>

<p>Does anyone know when ALL the incoming freshmen get their financial aid awards?
I can see that some of you have already received your estimated award while I have not even received anything…</p>
<p>It just says on the website that they will begin the awards sometime in April?</p>
