Hello,
On my financial aid page on CalCentral the amount offered (federal loans) only pertains to the Spring semester, which makes sense because I am a Spring Admit. It also lists the estimated costs which is 0 for the fall semester, and around 17k for spring. If I do FPF, is any financial aid (e.g. a loan) offered for the fall semester, which I will undoubtedly have to somehow pay for in the end? Or do I have to pay a lump sum for that semester? Additionally, I assume that the reason that I got no aid for the fall semester was because according to the system I am not yet set to traditionally attend. If nothing drastic changes, should I realistically be receiving a loan for both semesters for the following three years? I called the FA office multiple times today with no response, and also opened an online case. I believe I have until tomorrow to select a pathway, and if I don’t feel safe in terms of having a way to pay for FPF via a loan, its CC for a semester. Thanks in advance for all your help.
