UCI financial aid award for 2012-2013

<p>The aid website says that awards will be handed out by the 27th. I still haven't received my aid. I don't know if that means I will lose grant money. How much need based gift aid did you receive ?</p>

<p>Are you a transfer student? Have you called the FA office? Call on Monday and ask. </p>

<p>What is your FAFSA EFC? Do you qualify for Cal Grants? Do you qualify for Blue and Gold?</p>

<p>I am not a transfer student. I did call the FA office but they are not picking up :frowning: …and I cannot go to the office because I am living far away for the summer. I do qualify for grants since my parents make around $14,000 yearly. </p>

<p>I am just worried because this happened my freshman and I ended up taking an emergency loan to pay for registration fees.</p>

<p>Send an email to the FA office and ask about your awards.</p>

<p>What aid did you get last year. It sounds like you qualify for Blue and Gold so you should get a good amount of aid.</p>

<p>The school may be running behind processing its FA awards for returning students. Did you submit your FAFSA late? </p>

<p>UC’s don’t start school til mid/late Sept so you have time.</p>

<p>No, I have always submitted my documents on time. However, I had forgetten to update the Fafsa during my previous years but it wasn’t exactly a requirement. I did that this year though. </p>

<p>I guess I will go to their office on Monday…but I know they will give me the same response as usual.</p>
