Im in deep doo doo with the financial aid. (must appeal)

<p>nothing yet huh?</p>

<p>i havnt heard a word from them…</p>

<p>do you guys know what we are suppose to the subject as on an email??</p>

<p>subject of the email is late funding appeal</p>

<p>for any of the people who posted earlier, that said “reviewing will be in June-July” did you guys get a change in your financial aid package or notification already?</p>

<p>I got it. Gave me everything expected. My friend didn’t get the UCSD grant though. Just send in your appeal, and have your mom or dad write another</p>

<p>oh what?.. wow so lucky boboman, didnt i write in the appeal letter earlier than you?.. sighhh im so nervous, im guessing they receive the letters at random order ._.</p>

<p>Idk lol, I just turned it in probably the 15th of May? I turned in like 10 tax forms and 2 letters. </p>

<p>GL guys.</p>

<p>Btw, good news is I got almost all of it so you guys might also. Bad news is that the kid living in front of my house (I live in San Diego and my neighbour is also attending UCSD next year) didn’t get work study nor UCSD grant but got the Cal Grant (he also sent in an appeal about the same time).</p>

<p>I was eligible for a blue and gold opportunity plan. I am really in need right now. Would they consider that and accept my appeal? I just found out about it too and I called them a several times… I really need the aid</p>

<p>boboman911: Are you an entering freshman?</p>

<p>heeyp000: I was eligible for BnG plan too… parents make under 45k. just send in an appeal and pray… We’re at the UCSDFA office’s mercy…</p>

<p>I am an entering freshman. And they’re screwing up bad right now because I went on today to see that they’re processing my awards… AGAIN.</p>

<p>wow really? *** is going on._.</p>

<p>dude idk theres no one working there right now. At least I printed out my comfirmation page</p>

<p>did u try calling them? sigh, i didnt even get my financial aid yet.</p>

<p>are there anyone eles who didnt recieve them yet?</p>

<p>I havent -__-</p>

<p>They’re ridiculously vusy, it was just a glitch, and they won’t answer your calls.</p>

<p>I think i have another weird problem now. My status changed from something along the lines of “received and i will be notified via email when im awarded” to “Your financial aid application has been received by our office and we will begin the awarding process, but there is still further action you are required to complete.”</p>

<p>The only problem is that all my mandatory tasks are checked off. What am i missing…</p>

<p>Andrew, it’s a glitch. Happened to me. Last month.</p>

<p>So I didn’t know that we had to confirm our grad date and list UCSD as the school of attendance for the Cal Grant until yesterday… :frowning:
The info is all correct now, but will this affect how much I’ll get for Cal Grant, or if I’ll get it at all?</p>

<p>@graciee
I just realized i didnt do that either. Thanks for the reminder. I doubt it’ll be much of a problem. Can anyone confirm?</p>
