Aid notifications on ecampus now

<p>Wondering if everyone is as bummed as I am.....</p>

<p>Mine still isn't there! It still says "Award access denied"</p>

<p>Just checked and my son's A&S Dean's scholarship is only $3,000 per year. What a joke!!!!!</p>

<p>Yeah, I got "preferred scholar" which is 9,800 renewable for up to 4 years. I'm pretty happy with it. It kind of pales in comparason with Chapman who gave me 21,000 a year...especially since my family doesn't qualify for need-based financial aid. I would have a hard time justifying picking Santa Clara over Chapman...but $9,800 is a lot of money when you think about it.</p>

<p>I agree. We also do not qualify for need based aid but our son received >3x the Santa Clara award from Gonzaga. He actually has decided that he would prefer a larger university setting so its down to either Univ of Washington or Univ of Wisconsin Madison and I'm guessing the former. Congrats on the Chapman award.</p>

<p>Thanks :) Congrats to your son as well!! Those are some awesome choices!!</p>

<p>bmilstead---exactly what mine is. I was so disappointed. Awards from other colleges were 3 to 6 times that amount! And SCU was one of my top 2 choices.</p>

<p>i got 4,200 a year! not including legacy</p>

<p>Last year my brother received offers of $19.5K/yr. from USF and $7.5K/yr. from SCU. He wanted to go to SCU, but my parents couldn't justify sending him there. He's at USF now - I wish SCU wasn't so tight with their money.</p>

<p>Anyone else still unable to access their award? Or is it just me?</p>

<p>My S was offered the $9,800 scholarship, which puts SCU into play versus UCSB. He doesn't know which to prefer, especially as he was offered the Honors program at UCSB.</p>

<p>Wait SCU decisions are out?</p>

<p>lol, they've been comming out for a while</p>

<p>i got $33,600 per year SCU grant and another $9,000 for the cal grant</p>

<p>not quite sure about the cal grant and the loan they're offering
but i'm really excited about the amount of my SCU grant!</p>

<p>Why are you not sure about the Cal Grant? Did you file your GPA form on time?</p>

<p>hey guys, i recently emailed the financial aid regarding alumni scholarships etc. and they said that they will be sending out award offers within this week.</p>

<p>i'm not sure about the cal grant because it says its an "estimated" amount but when I received the actual cal grant letter it said I did not qualify because my GPA was below the minimum. I believe the minimum is a 3.0, yes? and mine is above that so I tried calling their offices but they were closed. I'll try tomorrow</p>
