Has anyone gotten their financial awards summary yet?

<p>Has anyone gotten their financial awards summary yet?</p>

<p>I was admitted about a month ago and haven't seen any financial award info posted on mycsulb yet, so just wondering if anyone else has seen their award. And does anyone know when they should be up? Thanks</p>

<p>BUMPPPPPPPPPPPPP
'11 juan juan woooo</p>

<p>Im in the same situation, I got accepted a month ago too and i havent seen any financial aid info on mycsulb either.</p>

<p>ok good so im not alone in that regard,
But still i hope it comes out soon, cost is a big issue for me</p>

<p>Sameeeee, waiting on all that info as well. I did some browsing and I’ve found that most schools send their aid award letters from early April to mid April, but we’ll see what happens</p>

<p>@mladenp: Same here, which is why I hope it gets to us soon so that I know what I have to come up with in order to go to CSULB!</p>

<p>arghh more waitiing?? all i’ve done is wait for stuff senior year haha</p>

<p>The financial aid summary has shown up on my account, so I’d check yours too if it’s there.</p>

<p>“You have no financial aid awards available for viewing in this aid year.”</p>

<p>arghhhhhh i want to see it already!</p>

<p>did you try clicking where it says account inquiry when you went to the financial aid part? Thats where i went when i viewed it.</p>

<p>yeah i did all that and it said i have no financial aid award available to view…but it also says they’ve received my fafsa so idk…i guess ill call them in a couple weeks if it doesnt change</p>

<p>same problem. i know im entitled at least a cal grant, and on my to-do list it states how they want to see my proof that i was ward of the court. i still have to send it in, but i figure i would be able to at least see something. </p>

<p>but when i click it says nothing is avalible to be seen. that can’t be right,</p>

<p>so, anyone else not seeing their financial aid?</p>

<p>This is from an article on the CSULB website about Federal Loans, but I believe that this could be the reason why many of us haven’t seen our Award Aid summaries yet (I suppose they need any requested documentation before making any offer to students):</p>

<ul>
<li>Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)</li>
<li>Submit any documentation requested by the CSULB Office of Financial Aid.</li>
<li>When the student’s financial aid file is complete, an award package will be generated, and can be accessed on MyCSULB.</li>
</ul>

<p>Logged into MyCSULB today, my View Financial Aid section got updated Awards Estimates.</p>

<p>Financial Aid Year 2010-2011</p>

<p>Federal Pell Grant Grant 5,400.00 5,400.00
SMART Grant Grant 4,000.00 4,000.00
Cal Grant A Grant 4,335.00 4,335.00
ESTIMATED Pell Grant 2,700.00 0.00
CSULB Summer Grant 400.00 0.00
Aid Year Totals 16,835.00 13,735.00</p>

<p>I’m a Junior commuting from home and here’s my financial aid packages after declining all loan. The last 2 are for Summer 2011 and I still haven’t decided if I should take summer school or not. </p>

<p>Here is a letter I got about my SMART Grant for next year,</p>

<p>“Our records show that you are a recipient of a Federal ACG or SMART Grant for the current 2010 – 2011 academic year. We are writing to inform you that the current 2010-2011 academic year will be the final year these grants can be awarded. Congress did not authorize federal funding for the ACG and SMART Grants beyond the current academic year, resulting in our inability to continue making awards next year. Please keep this in mind while you make your financial preparations for the 2011 – 2012 academic year.”</p>

<p>Darn-it, :frowning: There go $4,000 for just majoring in statistic with over a 3.0 GPA.</p>

<p>You should have gotten your financial aid through the mail and/or through your portal.</p>
