Official Financial Aid Award

<p>Just wondering, has anyone gotten theirs yet?</p>

<p>nope...i'm still waiting for it too.</p>

<p>Isn't it on your financial award package on <a href="http://myapplication.ucsd.edu%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://myapplication.ucsd.edu&lt;/a> ?</p>

<p>thats the unofficial award..they are talking about actually accepting the award and getting the money</p>

<p>Did anyone else receive a letter from the STUDENT LOAN XPRESS asking you to confirm the eligibility of a possible low cost federal education loan? I'm naturally a bit wary of student loan offers as most of them are hoaxes but this one sounds kind of familiar, it's called the Federal PLUS loan. </p>

<p>...so is it valid? The more I look at it, the more I think it's some **** as I would assume legitimate loan offers would most likely come in a UCSD verified package...</p>

<p>yea...i got that in my mail too.
i thought it was some kind of ****.
one of my friends, who's going to cal state fullerton,
got that in her mail as well.
So....i don't think that is IT.</p>

<p>i got a scholarship like, last month. they sent it to me a while back, and then they requested i write a thank you letter too.</p>

<p>Do we have to do the online loan counselling thing now or when we get the official FinAid award?</p>

<p>When do we get this financial aid award notice? The OFFICIAL notice? </p>

<p>I hope we get it before July 1st....</p>

<p>i got it already... like two days ago...</p>

<p>Ed, did you get it electronically or through Postal Service?</p>

<p>And I thought this would be helpful to most of you, too:</p>

<p>official financial aid awards are available online...</p>

<p>did anyone else's UCSD grant-in-aid go down significantly??</p>

<p>I would tell you if I could, hellokitty11, but all I see on my financial aid page is:</p>

<p>Application Completed:<br>
Complete for Disbursement: Not ready for disbursement</p>

<p>Documents Needed: DEPENDENT VERIFICATION WORKSHEET</p>

<p>I just e-mail'ed UCSD about this and will probably call them later today, too.</p>

<p>since i haven't gone to my home in san diego... i don't know if they are in the mail... i got them online through tritonlink or that thing....</p>

<p>the suckers cut my ucsd grant in half from what my preliminary package was and replaced it with loans! boo</p>

<p>Financial Aid Status
Complete for Disbursement: Not ready for disbursement
