Continuning Students: Financial Aid

<p>Have any of you continuing students NOT yet received your financial aid? I haven’t yet and its getting slightly annoying since I believe I need to start making payments for tuition soon but I don’t want to pay more if I don’t have to. The financial aid office keeps saying “you’ll hear back in a couple of weeks.” Anyone else share my pain?</p>

<p>The latest is July 1st to hear back unless you turned in all your forms late.</p>

<p>i had everything in except for income tax returns which they DIDNT email me about(only knew about it cuz i checked studentlink), thus, were turned in late. is that still counted late? -_- i hate bu’s fin aid process. its so shrouded in mystery …</p>

<p>I know, that happened to me too. I turned in everything on time but they didn’t tell me they wanted me to resend something. It’s counted late I believe. The date they receive the thing is the date they count it.</p>

<p>darn. stupid bu lol</p>

<p>it seems like everyone else has received their aid already and they turned some of their required docs in late too :frowning: i don’t understand how i’m suppose to pay for tuition without knowing my fin aid! kl;ajsdaksldf</p>

<p>Did you call the office?</p>

<p>several times. “it’ll be up by the end of june” -now july- uhh yeah… dunno what to do now…</p>

<p>Try contacting the assistant director in charge of your financial aid.</p>

<p>oo sounds good thanks for the advice. does anyone know if the fin aid office is closed this monday for 4th of july?</p>

<p>I work at a different university and it’s closing on Monday. Not sure about BU. If they observe that holiday, chances are it won’t be open. Check the calendar.</p>
