Late Fafsa

Paying for College
1

<p>so i was stupid and submitted my fafsa late (submitted on the 21st of march, deadline for my state was march 2nd)</p>

<p>i called my school of choice (cal poly SLO, if that helps) and they said that i wouldnt be eligible for state funds, but i would be eligible for federal funding.</p>

<p>is losing state funding truly that big of a blow? comparative, who gives more money, CA or the government? idk if it makes a difference that my school is a state school.</p>

<p>bump...............</p>

<p>Well, Cal Grants are pretty good sized, over $5000 if you qualify :(</p>

<p>do you know if i will receive any state funds? for example, if kids who are offered admission/financial aid and turn down the school, then there must be money left over. will i be eligible for any of those funds?</p>

<p>i know i wont receive priority, but will i not got any funds from the state whatsoever? even a little bit?</p>
