USC Financial Aid Appeal Results Normal?

Hey guys,

I submitted an appeal for my financial aid package on Thursday. I just checked my portal and noticed some things had changed–I received a $1000 increase in grant money and a slight decrease in loans. However, I didn’t get a notification email saying that my FA package had been revised or anything.

To anyone who has gone through the process of appealing–were you notified when your re-evaluation was complete? I’m extremely grateful that they chose to give me anything at all, but I’m wondering if they could still be working on the package and updating the portal as they go. Does anyone have any experience with this? I would really appreciate your input!
