<p>DD got her finaid award from USD today. She received an $11900 USD grant and the stafford loan. It says on the form that the she must return all three pages within three weeks of the receipt of the award. However, DD is not yet ready to commit to attending as she is going there for an overnight in April. Any suggestions? I guess I need to call.</p>
<p>They will make allowances , they did for us, just call and let them know. Most folks do that. Congratulations!!</p>
<p>sweet... i hope they're as generous with me... did they specify if it was merit or need-based aid?</p>
<p>Check your finaid awards. DD just got an email to check hers. Her grant went DOWN about $2000 to $9600 per year.</p>
<p>Wow, did you call about that? Was it based on them recieving taxe info? Doesn't seem right.</p>
<p>I just spoke to them. Our finalized FAFSA (done on Feb 2) was downloaded to USD the same day they made her original award. The $3000 difference in our AGI income, I guess, made the difference. Nothing else was different on the amended FAFSA. Oh well.</p>
