<p>hey guys, i'm really bad w/this finaid stuff...so i want some opinions from ppl who know more about it!</p>

<p>RU gave me (from what i've seen online...) 2 types of scholarships, some loans, and work study.....that's not enough...i'm looking to cover as much tuition as possible...
a friend of mine received LOTS of grants. and i'm just wandering, do i have to APPLY for those grants or do i get automatically considered for them? so far, i received no grants from them. just 2 scholarships, loans, and work study. </p>

<p>and also, second question...for Tuition Aid Grant (TAG), it says that i appear to be eligible for it and i will be notified directly by HESAA. i have heard nothing from them. do i have to register somewhere or do something? yesterday i just went on their website and made an account, if that helps...has anyone gotten TAG grants yet?</p>

<p>so long story short, what's the deal w/grants? do i apply for them or do i simply do nothing and wait? </p>

<p>thanks you guys for taking ur time to read this over! please respond! any input would be great!</p>

<p>Keep checking your enrollment status and the financial aide preliminary letter on-line to be sure they are not asking for tax returns or w-2’s. Rutgers should be updating their financial aid software for 2009-2010 very soon and it will allow them to verify the TAG grant as well. Hopefully all will be donw before the May 1 acceptance date.</p>
