More Shenanigans

<p>NICE...I hope that means we are in...</p>

<p>I got the bold red letters, i didnt apply for fafsa or financial aid, but im guessing rejection. I had a tiny chance of getting in anyway</p>

<p>Here's the text:</p>

Click "access" if anything shows up.
Look at the right side for Blue and Gold opportunity plan.
Click it and voila.</p>

<p>theh scholarship recognition award is if you file the FAFSA before mar 2 and recognizes academic excellence and financial aid i believe...

<p>BreakfastClub, did you submit a FAFSA?</p>

<p>yes... :(<br>
i dont know if i specifically applied through UCLA.. but i did turn in a fafsa.. on time</p>

<p>wait. if we didn't apply for any type of financial aid, is it normal to be seeing this:</p>

<p>Sorry, there are no Notices available for you to view for the period selected. Please select another Academic Year</p>

<p>?</p>

<p>I hope this doesn't mean rejection :(</p>

<p>Hm, when the application asked you which colleges you wanted to send it to, did you select UCLA as one of them?</p>

<p>this is depressing</p>

<p>i think its normal if we didnt apply for ANY type of aid</p>

<p>^ this site may just be relaying info about our fafsa details, so dont get too excited peoples.</p>

<p>yes, im almost 100% certain that i did... any chance that mine hasnt been uploaded yet?</p>
