<p>@tony ^^^^^^</p>
<p>Thank you!!!</p>
<p>Edit: BTW last question. What are the chances the new TAG guidelines for Fall 2014 will be different from the current TAG guidelines? Do you guys think there will be any major differences?</p>
<p>TAG will most likely have the same requirements for Fall 2014 for Letters and Science majors. Check back in July for official requirements. For now shoot for a 3.2+</p>

<p>@expo. All right, so I called them and they told me a programer was going to link my financial aid information to my portal by tonight, so I should have my financial award by Saturday morning. They said It’s an easy fix but they have to get someone to do it physically because for some reason there was a problem with a few admitted applicants’s aid. Definitely call them and let them know that you want your information linked manually. I don’t think they will do it by tonight unless you call them and ask them to do it.</p>
<p>@Mermaker Thank you!! For the info. </p>
<p>I was about to call but I just checked my portal and the financial aid now stays </p>
<p>“The system is currently being updated. Please check back in 15 minutes.” </p>
<p>So I guess I’ll just wait then. Does yours say that?</p>
<p>It always says that but it never updates my info</p>
<p>@mermaker Your right nothing happened </p>
<p>So I ended up calling and they told me something very similar to what you posted. Expect they won’t be able to post it until Tuesday morning.</p>
<p>Hope you get yours tomorrow</p>
<p>They told you Tuesday? That’s probably when they are going to do mine then</p>
