<p>Has anyone had this problem in the past? If so, did it affect your Cal Grant the year after when you reapplied. I'm just curious because they cancelled my Cal Grant 11-12, but it didn't affect me since I'm a CC student and receive Pell grants. I have already reapplied this year though.</p>

<p>"Dear Cal Grant Student:</p>

<p>This letter is being sent by the California Student Aid Commission (CSAC) and requires your IMMEDIATE ATTENTION. CSAC cannot renew your Cal Grant award for the 2011-12 academic year because CSAC has not received a request for payment from your school or a request for a leave of absence from you.</p>

<p>If CSAC does not receive either a request for payment or leave of absence for the 2010-11 school year by September 25, 2011, YOUR CAL GRANT AWARD WILL BE CANCELLED.</p>

<p>To renew your award you must do one of the following:</p>

<ol>
<li><p>If you attended any term(s) during the 2010-11 school year, contact the financial aid office at the school you attended to request that they report a Cal Grant payment or other applicable status to CSAC.</p></li>
<li><p>If you were not enrolled in school, or were attending less than half-time for any term(s) listed above, IMMEDIATELY REQUEST A LEAVE OF ABSENCE. To request a leave of absence, log-in to the WebGrants for Students Web site at <a href="http://www.webgrants4students.org%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.webgrants4students.org&lt;/a> to enter a leave for the term(s) you were not enrolled. If this is your first time visiting WGS, you will need to create a WGS account by clicking the link that says, "Create an Account." When you log in to WGS, you will need to ensure that your information is correct, including the school that we currently have listed on file for you."</p></li>
</ol>

<p>yes that happened to me for 2011-2012. I went to financial aid at my school and they said that they would automatically send my gpa. To this day I never received my cal grant for 2011-2012 and when i go to webgrants website to check cal grant status i get this </p>

<p>"College of Attendance: School Not Found "
My gpa has been sent already though but by 2 other collge in the same laccdistrict.</p>

<p>And tomorrow i plan on calling webgrants directly about this. Here’s how mine looks</p>

<p>Idk if it’s the 2.00 gpa from the lower college you see there (idk why it’s 2.0! I had an overall 3.28 back then) or the fact that i did my fafsa on July 2011.</p>

<p>On the bright side i just checked my cal grant for 2012-2013 and it looks like i’ll be getting it ^^ i hope i get accepted to a UC fingers crossed!</p>
