Around a week ago I received a letter with a financial aid package of approximately $30k. However, when I checked the financial aid letter online today I was shocked to see that the amount had changed to less than $10k. Has anyone else seen a similar change to their financial aid awards?
@booleanring Was that an arbitrary change? No new financial aid documents were processed in the last week? And did the date on the Financial Aid letter change?
There was another user here on CC whose FA package increased even though no new documents were processed.
@MandomeLife No new documents were processed, but the date on the letter did change.
@booleanring, did you call the school to find out? My S online letter has new note: saying:
This financial aid package is TENTATIVE. Please review the attached Eligibility & Status Alerts for more information.
I couldn’t find any attachments
This makes me worried.
The attachment basically states that all documents must be received and processed before a final financial aid package is awarded. If all have been received, there shouldn’t be anything to worry about… except the OP’s situation uggggg.
We did request CMU to review FA and sent another institution’s offer, which is little better, hope they can match, not sure the note had anything to do with it.
@MandomeLife, what’s OP situation?
@MandomeLife nevermind, thanks
