Financial Aid Email

The UCI Financial Aid Dept. sent us an email telling us they updated our fin aid app. My son also applied to other UC’s but we haven’t heard from them. This may be dumb to ask but could this mean anything?

I don’t see a way to edit my above post via mobile but wanted to clarify my question. Could that email be a possible indicator for admission?

This is a standard email that UCI sends out to all applicants making sure that if financial aid is needed, that you have filled out the required FA paperwork and submitted it for consideration. FA office has nothing to do with admissions.

We received the financial aid e-mail before we received confirmation that the application was received. The two aren’t related. I think the timing of the e-mail has to do with when they receive your FAFSA. Did you just complete your FAFSA recently?

No, we completed FAFSA in November.
