<p>I'm a little worried that my cal grant wont be dispersed to me before the January 15th deadline. What happens if it doesn't? Do I have to pay my balance out of pocket? Do they refund me my money if I do so?</p>

<p>According to my Award Payment Status, everything but my ACG has been paid in full.</p>

<p>My Award Payment Status says everything but ACG has been paid out,</p>

<p>BUT</p>

<p>i havn’t actually recieved about $5000… my EFT was only $700, instead of $5700.</p>

<p>now im worried about whether i have to ask my parents to pay for apartment…</p>

<p>If you get financial aid you don’t need to worry about the CARS deadlines.</p>

<p>Really? None of my financial aid has paid yet…does anyone know why this is? =/</p>

<p>^ If you don’t have any registration blocks and have enrolled in at least 13 units then your fees will be paid by the deadline by financial aid.</p>

<p>since this is a thread on calgrants, does anyone know if they still give out calgrant B? i got it in community college which was like an extra $1,500 a year that was just extra spending money to use it on whatever i wanted. Anyone know if they still give this out? was supposed to get it for three years, only got it for 2.</p>

<p>Question relating this…my quick statement on BearFacts currently shows: </p>

<p>Minimum Amount Due Now: $0.00
Minimum Due + Full Reg Fee: $0.00
Account Balance: $0.00</p>

<p>but my E-bill still reflects the December bill that says I need to pay $5,469.75. </p>

<p>At this point, do I not pay anything? I have financial aid; in the past I have always paid the bill as soon as it comes out and got refunded later in the semester. I’m wondering if this time, since I delayed for so long, my financial aid was able to apply without me paying first, eliminating the need to give me back the money later. </p>

<p>Are there any late fees involved if I misunderstood and I need to pay something…?</p>

<p>The quick statement is Fairly up to date.</p>

<p>HOWEVER: The E-bill can be up to a month behind. Disregard the $5,469, its been paid. You now owe $0 to the school.</p>

<p>You just need to figure out anything else (personal supplies, books, apartment if you’re not in dorms).</p>
