Financial Aid urgent

Hello, my financial aid is pending and won’t be disbursed until later in the month. I paid the difference between tuition and aid given and my account on cunyfirst says I owe 0.00. However, it also says I owe 3,000 because my aid has not been activated yet and my payment was due yesterday. Now it says “payment past due”. Should I worry or will that clear up once the financial aid comes through?

Call your bursar’s office (or whatever department that takes care of payments). It’s probably not a big deal, but it’s best to ask directly.
