<p>I'm not exactly sure where to put this, but since this is a problem regarding Berkeley specifically, I am addressing it in this subforum.
Okay, I submitted my FAFSA to Berkeley in February. However, I had 11 schools so I sent out two reports, putting UC Berkeley in my 2nd report. I assumed it would be sent as a correction because FAFSA told me to send it in this way. However, I got in (I got the Regents scholarship too), but Berkeley claims that I never sent them the FAFSA on the web page. What should I do now? Will I be penalized when trying to get financial aid now?</p>
<p>Why hasn't Cal received my financial aid?</p>
<p>EDIT: I sent the corrected FAFSA (with UC Berkeley) on January 15th.</p>
<p>Actually, I had UC Berkeley on the first report. I took it out to put in another UC on my second report. I don’t understand how this would affect the Berkeley financial aid office from getting it or not because FAFSA instructed me to do this if I had 10 or more schools.</p>
<p>Okay good! Maybe they just haven’t processed all of them yet. I thought it was just me who had this problem since they usually provide the financial aid on the day of admissions.</p>
<p>The only thing related to financial aid on admit day is whether you’re R&C. If you got Regents’ at another UC then the cost to attend Berkeley should be very close.</p>
<p>My son has the same problem. He submitted his FAFSA to several UCs end of Feb. He double checked the UC list. All the other UCs got it. On the Berkeley FAQ, it says either you didn’t fill out the FAFSA, you didn’t send it to Berkeley, or you have a mis-match SSN. How can that be when several other UCs got it and already processed it.</p>
