<p>When they receive your documents will they notify you? Or will it just show up as satisfied when you try to accept the money?</p>
<p>Not really sure.</p>
<p>I’m waiting for my Cal Grant A to be approved. Still waiting on the financial aid office to verify my transfer!</p>
<p>Yeah, I’m getting concerned as well. September 16th is coming soon and I need to receive my financial aid package to attend this college. Without my Grants being approved, I cant accept any loans either. To be fair, they are processing thousands of documents. I’m glad I’m not the only one in this situation.</p>
<p>I sent my documents in kind of late…
but as of like a week and a half ago it changed to “Received”…
Now I’m just waiting for it to change to “satisfied”
=/</p>
<p>Will we get our financial aid package by September 16? I completely forgot. Also, do we get it in its full amount or do we get a little by little?</p>
<p>Because I’m a transfer student. I hope it gets verified soon! I’ve been waiting all summer.</p>
<p>I believe we receive it on Sept.14th. The deadline for registration fees is Sept 16th. We receive DIRECT DEPOSIT on Sept. 20th.</p>
<p>^That’s what I read on one of UC Davis’s Financial Aid websites.</p>
<p>I think the amount of time they give you to pay for the bill is kind of tight, and if Direct Deposit is AFTER the deadline, I’m assuming you have to pay for it in advance prior to receiving financial aid?? :(</p>
<p>Financial aid will cover your fees before the deadline, or at least it should. Depending on how much aid you receive, it might cover everything and it might not, so you have to pay the remaining amount on mybill. Direct deposit is anything left over from your aid (receive on the 20th). I think you should know if you’re getting left over aid if you see a negative amount on mybill. At least that’s how it’s always worked for me.</p>
<p>Direct deposit into what account? My first thought was how we were offered to make our student IDs into debit cards, but I didn’t do that since I already have multiple accounts.</p>
<p>Soy, do I have to physically go to mybill to USE my financial aid to pay for my fees? Or is it done automatically?? I also have the same question as michellaneous regarding direct deposit</p>
<p>Financial aid automatically pays for your fees depending on how much you receive. You can go to mybill to look at your recent activity to see if any fin aid already got disbursed. If they received all your paperwork and everything is satisfied, then your aid should already be disbursed. You should already have an idea of whether or not your aid will cover your quarter fees depending on what you accepted/declined on myawards. And you pay the remaining amount. If it is a negative amount, that means you have left over aid. If you are signed up for direct deposit, the money will be wired to whichever account you put when you signed up (for example, your checking account). </p>
<p>Do note that you do not have to sign up for direct deposit (although it is easier). Otherwise, you have to go to the student accounting office in Dutton hall to pick up your check. </p>

<p>to sign up.</p>
<p>soy’s the best</p>
<p>I’m sort of confused here. In my current billing statement, the total amount due is in the negatives. So I’m assuming that’s how much money going into my checking account via direct deposit. But on the eBills tab of mybill.ucdavis.edu, it says my current balance is $4.5k. Does that I mean I have to pay the different between my balance and my statement?!? It seems as if I already paid a big chunk of money in Student Registration Fees and SHIP already!</p>
<p>No, not at all. The current balance shows how much you have to pay for fall quarter. If your current billing statement shows a negative amount, you should be fine. It means your financial aid balance covered your quarter fees (mine is around $4.5k too). You don’t pay the difference, it means you should be all set.</p>
<p>And when winter quarter rolls around, you’ll get issued new quarter fees and the process starts again. I know it’s pretty confusing, I was really confused my freshmen year too, but the statement amount is really the number you want to look for.</p>
<p>And just to stress it one last time, just in case it got lost in all my ramblings: Your entire financial aid package does not go into direct deposit. Direct deposit is for any remaining/left over aid. You can be signed up for direct deposit, but if you don’t have left over aid, no money is going to be transferred into your personal account.</p>
<p>Soy, I need your help…i am still confused about the whole my bill thing. See the thing i am confused is that my current balance = 4.5k but my statement amount = negative number…so that means i am set?..or do i have to pay? is that negative number gonna go into my direct deposit account? …plz help!</p>
<p>Yep, looks like you’re all set. The negative amount will go into your direct deposit.</p>
<p>Thx so much! that was really confusing me! Really appreciate it!</p>
<p>I have the same problem, too. I sent in my documents back in May and it was updated a week later, saying that the documents were then “received”. But it has been four months now and no updates ever since. None of the documents are “satisfied” and the Student’s 2009 Income Tax Refund remains “not satisfied” even though I declared in the Verification worksheet that i did not work.
I tried emailing them, calling them, but still cannot reach them. They never replied my emails, and the line is constantly busy. I don’t know what I should do now. Should I just drive up to UCD financial aid office and talk directly in person? The deadline is coming so soon</p>
<p>You need to find a way to contact them ASAP. Disbursements are coming out soon, and the deadline to pay registration fees is even before that, I believe. If you don’t live too far, then yeah, I’d say drive there and make them deal with you.</p>
<p>My FAFSA was cleared last week. I’m sure they’re rushing to do it all before the fees roll in. But my question is if I primarily pay for college with financial aid, how do I pay the fees? Or is it done automatically?</p>
