UCLA ePal unavailable

<p>So I go to URSA and my ePal is unavailable and are only showing me a list of what could be wrong. Is there just a lag, or that it's just not ready yet or does that mean I should just ignore this?</p>

<p>You should call them and ask.</p>

<p>I emailed them, but I think it’s my fault.</p>

<p>The thing is that I didn’t file my FAFSA, because I couldn’t until after I got my acceptance. I was told by someone to just do my FAFSA anyways even though it was due last March, so I did. Now I completely filed it.</p>

<p>Also, I’m getting this email about a TAP Scholarship but one of the requirements was to file FAFSA by March. I emailed them about that too.</p>

<p>Does anyone know what happens if you file your FAFSA late?</p>

<p>Ya, they can’t generate your financial aid without your FAFSA. They should put it up soon.</p>

<p>I have a similar question. I submitted my FAFSA in late January but UCLA didn’t have any record of receiving it, so I resubmitted it yesterday. Will the amount of the award be affected by this?</p>

<p>yeah probably</p>

<p>So I should just wait for my ePal to update?</p>

<p>I would assume so. But you could call and ask. See what they say.</p>

<p>So it was updated. And I saw all those estimates.
Now new question, I filed my FAFSA late (after 3/2) so I can’t meet that requirement for the Blue and Gold Plan and the Cal Grant.</p>

<p>Now, I emailed the financial aid office and they said that as a transfer student, my FAFSA would have been considered as “on-time”. So am I eligible for the Blue and Gold Plan or what? And Cal Grant, do I have to apply for that on a separate application or is that a included if I file my FAFSA?</p>

<p>"Note: as a new transfer student to UCLA you will be awarded as on-time. Keep in mind for future years of enrollment you must complete the FAFSA prior to March 2nd priority deadline to be considered on time for financial aid. " from the financial aid office.</p>
