<p>@isenior they sent both email and regular mail @jeromefulton look on their site for the fos scholarship and email them if you fit the criteria, they may have overlooked you!</p>
<p>@niqueb1 i did what you said and i got it. Thank you.</p>
<p>Congrats! What exactly did you do Jerome? I qualify for that too…</p>
<p>i quallify for it too, but i was thinking i didn’t get it bc of test scores. does test scores and GPA have anything to do with it?</p>
<p>@iSenior I called and talked to Denise and I emailed Mrs. Fooks.
@abdc11 Test scores and GPA are not factors for the scholarship.
Also, they only give it out to 400 students and about 1200 are eligible. I guess it would depend on the date you completed your FAFSA and your need.</p>
<p>Did you have to apply for this?</p>
<p>@jerome, thanks. If I may ask, when did you complete your FAFSA and what is your EFC? My FAFSA date was pretty late so I just want to compare.</p>
<p>I’m getting impatient… I need to start planning. I wish they would send FinAid letters! I got a scholarship but I want to know the rest… Argh.</p>
<p>@iSenior I completed my FAFSA on January 7th and my efc was 0.
@Bee579 No, you are automatically considered for it.</p>
<p>I see. I completed my FAFSA March 1st, so that’s probably why I didn’t get a letter saying I was eligible.</p>
<p>@abdc11 Check your isis account and see if you have any missing documents. You may have been awarded the scholarship and not have known about it.</p>
<p>i check isis habitually. lol.
when i click on aid status for 2011-12, it says i have no missing documents so nope. 
no Florida Opportunity Scholar here. :/</p>
<p>I’m in the same boat abdc11. I have all the requirements, and I applied for FASFA back in early-mid Febuary. Isis says they have recieved my fasfa and that I have no missing documents</p>
<p>Call them and keep checking on it. Don’t give up just yet.</p>
<p>Same here, Bee and abcd. I check ISIS habitually as well and it just says no missing documents :. I just want at least some sort of money because my EFC is 0 and I don’t want to make my parents pay anything.</p>
<p>same. has anyone actually been awarded the scholarship or just told they were eligible?</p>
<p>A Few people at my school were awarded it.</p>
<p>Maybe something is finally going to be updated on Financial Aid - I looked on Isis and I now see something about a parent plus loan that was not there before - nothing else yet though. Maybe tonight!</p>
<p>Or not…</p>
<p>i wish it would come already…! i got that same loan thing… beware of those parent plus loans. they’re dangerous! they should be considered a last resort.</p>
