2019-2020 Middle Class Scholarship UC Davis

Hi all,
I had a question about how the Middle Class Scholarship gets disbursed. I currently attend UC Davis as a sophomore and my FA has decreased since my sister is no longer in college. My family’s income is ~120K a year and my sister is in a CLS program that she pays for, so technically I’m the only dependent of my parents. I have no Cal Grants this year and was awarded the MCS on August 3. My financial aid says that the MCS was never awarded/accepted but I remember when I checked the $ amount on the CSAC site, there was no “Accept” button anywhere, it just told me how much I got, unless of course I overlooked it.

I’ve been told that it actually gets disbursed in November, but I’m very confused and need some clarification from others who have actually received and gone through this process. I do plan on calling my FA office once it opens, but any clarification before then would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

From the UC Davis website:
2019-2020 Award Notification
We anticipate that MCS awards will be posted sometime in mid-November 2019, and students will receive an email to review MyAwards at that time.

Please note, this program is contingent on state funding.

I would contact the financial aid office to confirm.
