Financial Aid for Housing?

<p>Are financial aid people exempted from paying the $400 initial housing fee, or do we still have to pay it.</p>

<p>Also how does the process of financial aid covering the housing fee, work.</p>

<p>thanks.</p>

<p>i think that includes your financial aid already since i have to pay like $2500+ dollars for the deposit.</p>

<p>also they need to know that you are going to take the spot offered to you because there might not be enough room.</p>

<p>I believe you have to pay the $400.
No, it doesn't include your financial aid already, it just decreases the amount you have to pay now for initial housing payment and increases the other quarterly payments since you'll have gotten financial aid money by then.
You receive financial aid every quarter (starting mid-Sept), and then you can use that money to pay housing payments.</p>

<p>Ok, just to confirm, we have to pay the $400 initial payment regardless of whether or not we receive financial aid, right?
Also, I wanted to ask about the eFAN. I think I heard it comes out during the summer. Is this correct? So we wont actually know exactly how much we receive from financial aid until then?
Final item, When do we find out more about the loans that UCLA provides to students, and what is the process of applying and receiving that?
Thanks!</p>
