<p>GUYS,</p>

<p>This is primarily for AndrewL and Rainbow-</p>

<p>Yesterday, out of desperation, I had my dad complete the measures for Parent Plus Loan (of 14k), hoping that it will be lowered after the appeal is approved.</p>

<p>TODAY, I got ALL of my aid back. I am not sure if this is a coincidence (day after I do the Parent Plus Loan), but it may be worth your try. </p>

<p>Here is my original financial aid award, which NOW appears on tritonlink:
ACAD COMP GRANT (GL-1) Confirmed 750.00 750.00 250.00
CAL GRANT B STIPEND NEW Confirmed 1,551.00 1,551.00 517.00
DIRECT LOAN-PARENT PLUS Accepted 451.00 451.00 0.00
DIRECT LOAN - SUBSIDIZED Accepted 3,500.00 3,500.00 0.00
DIRECT LOAN-UNSUBSIDIZED Accepted 2,000.00 2,000.00 0.00
FEDERAL WORK STUDY Ready to accept or decline 2,850.00 0.00 0.00
UCSD GRANT-IN-AID Accepted 11,523.00 11,523.00 0.00
FEDERAL PELL GRANT Confirmed 5,400.00 5,400.00 1,800.00
Totals: 28,025.00 </p>

<p>p.s. Fax your sheet (the supplement to Parent Plus loan) to UCSD to expedite things.</p>

<p>YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>

<p>GOOD LUCK TO Y'ALL!</p>

<p>CONGRATS! Glad you dont need to stress out anymore.</p>

<p>Just wondering, did you ever get an email saying it was approved? What day did you send in your appeal?</p>

3

<p>I did not get any email at all .<em>.
I just checked my financial aid award when I woke up as I have been doing… for the past month or so ;</em>;</p>

<p>I sent my appeal July 28th!
Good luck to you!
Hope you hear from FAO soon! :)</p>

<p>Maybe they just looked at your application right when they saw you apply for a loan. I sent mine July 1st and nothing =</p>

<p>Updatee. I called them and my appeal has been approved and i got all my aid. She said the effects should take effect on my account tonight. Woot :D</p>

<p>I’m really confused. I don’t really understand why I didn’t get the Cal grant. How do people get that? What are the requirments? I’m not a California resident, is that why I’m not getting the Cal grant?</p>

<p>^^ correct
you must be a california resident to be eligible for cal grant</p>
