<p>If I filled out the waiver for UC Ship and got an email, does that mean they have approved it? I just want to know so I can decline my UC Ship grant. I don't want to decline it then find out that I need to buy the darn thing then go through the hassle of trying to get it back.</p>
<p>When I filed a waiver for UC SHIP a few years ago I received an email from the Ashe Center that it was approved (it was clear from the email) and I believe I received a refund shortly thereafter, though I can’t remember exactly. I don’t think I got an email (or at least I’m unable to find it) when the waiver I submitted the following year wasn’t approved, and hence it was charged on my BruinBill/some financial aid money covered it.</p>
<p>If you got confirmation numbers after you waived, and again in your email, it should be completed. You can log into the Ashe website again and review your completed waivers.</p>
<p>@phospholipase, thanks! I got the confirmation numbers in an email and I can see the completed waivers on the Ashe website. That means my waiver has been approved, right? And I can decline the grant to buy UC Ship?</p>
<p>Yes, you can decline the UC SHIP Grant. A reserve charge should automatically appear on your BruinBill to minus the charge from UC SHIP. Just make sure it appears on your BruinBill when you pay your quarterly enrollment fees.</p>
