CSULB Spring 2018 Transfer Thread

@MLopez24 thanks I hope I find out before the deadline. Long Beach is definitely the school that I am going to, I just wish I knew to add the school to my FAFSA earlier

@Isawthesine - Yes, you go to your FAFSA account and add CSULB to your list of schools who can obtain your FA info. It’s called making a correction. You should be able to edit it and make a correction. They will confirm your correction via email after you do it. I’ve already received and accepted my financial aid. Once you accept your aid, you must do a few things which they will list for you; things like a Master Promissory Note and Entrance Counseling. It’s recommended you sign up for eRefund to obtain your aid and transfer it to your bank account. If you don’t have a bank account and/or don’t want to sign up for eRefund, you will obtain your financial aid via check 10 days prior to the first day of the semester.

@xSupreme49 Thanks for the info. I was able to update my FAFSA and I believe that my information was processed by Long Beach as my acceptance fee was waived, however when I go to the financial aid section on the student center it says “You have no financial aid awards available for viewing in this aid year” which I believe to mean that I won’t receive financial aid, but the available for viewing possibly could mean otherwise. I also feel that they would have at least shown me loan options if no financial aide could be offered to me like they did for a previous commenter.

@Isawthesine it’ll probably show up soon. My page also said no aid for viewing for aid year, it changed after I got an email from CSULB saying it was available for viewing. That’s when i was able to see my options.

I haven’t accepted yet, but it’ll be nice to get the acceptance fee waved too. Maybe you qualified for the waver when you applied initially on csu apply site (waving the $55 app fee) and they ran it off that info… ? Idk.

@MLopez24 initially when I went to accept the offer it showed that I would have to pay the acceptance fee, and then when I saw the financial aid I went to accept the offer and the fee was waived. So I think that part was just able to be waived and the amount that I could potentially relieve will come soon. Thanks again for the helpful information!

My financial aid status was updated today with my rewards. Thanks for the help :slight_smile:
