I made a correction to my FAFSA about 3 months ago because I accidentally put that I had an income when I didn’t. I recently got my awards from A&M from financial and was underwhelmed. I was expecting more than I received. Is does the updated FAFSA send immediately or could there be a delay? Could the university have used my old FAFSA?
You could call the financial aid office and ask, that’s probably your best bet of finding out for sure. I know in my case for Baylor, there was a mistake in my FAFSA and we found it really helpful in clearing things up over the phone with someone from the financial aid office, and to our surprise, she said we would actually probably receive more money after correcting that mistake. This was after we already found our offer before calling and correcting the mistake, as well.
A & M doesn’t guarantee to meet full need. What aid did you get? And what were you expecting?
