<p>Hello all,</p>
<p>I have a few questions regarding portions of the eFAN. Some of these questions are shared by other students that I know as well, so I will put them together in one thread.</p>
<p>1.) If I put "undecided" on any portion of the eFAN now (e.g. the loans, work-study), could I accept it later?</p>
<p>2.) I have outside scholarships. Since they still need to be sent in, and the eFAN won't be changed to reflect those scholarship amounts until a certain period afterwards (5-10 business days), should I accept the loans and work-study or leave them as "undecided"? This question is mainly important because I don't know whether my outside scholarships will reduce or rid my loans and work-study altogether yet, so I'm not sure what I should do about them.</p>
<p>3.) Does accepting or declining any portion of the eFAN affect those same portions in my financial aid for next year, and the years afterward?</p>
<p>4.) When is the last day to submit my eFAN responses?</p>
<p>Thank you, and I will update this thread if there are any more questions!</p>
<p>Is the eFan out yet? How did you access it?</p>
<p>Yes! Access it on your URSA account: <a href=“https://www.ursa.ucla.edu/[/url]”>https://www.ursa.ucla.edu/</a> (“View eFAN and Financial Aid Awards on MyFAO”).</p>
<p>As far as this figure from the Internet can attest-</p>
<p>1.) If I put “undecided” on any portion of the eFAN now (e.g. the loans, work-study), could I accept it later?
Yes, you can generate a new eFAN to officially accept or decline loans.
As far as work-study is concerned, just accept it. It won’t harm you accepting it. Don’t find a job? Whatever. Find a job? Cool, apply work-study to it.</p>
<p>2.) I have outside scholarships. Since they still need to be sent in, and the eFAN won’t be changed to reflect those scholarship amounts until a certain period afterwards (5-10 business days), should I accept the loans and work-study or leave them as “undecided”? This question is mainly important because I don’t know whether my outside scholarships will reduce or rid my loans and work-study altogether yet, so I’m not sure what I should do about them.
Accept work-study. Leave as undecided loans.</p>
<p>3.) Does accepting or declining any portion of the eFAN affect those same portions in my financial aid for next year, and the years afterward?
My guess is no, unless its a scholarship that you can renew. But right… why wouldn’t somebody accept those?</p>
<p>4.) When is the last day to submit my eFAN responses?
Dunno.</p>
<p>So confused, why did Efan group all the federal aids including Cal Grant into “Scholarship Recognition award”? It was so nicely organized before, so we could see where each cent came from.</p>
