<p>Perhaps I just read too much, but I was already aware that they do reduce eligibility based on class standing when you enter. It is, sadly, not something they bold up front, but that is in the information. Since I was a transfer student, I probably had more motivation to dig through the fine print, though, because they are upfront about the reduced eligibility for junior transfers. I don’t like to be surprised so I read everything I could :B</p>
<p>The unit thing is very odd and I really can’t imagine it being something the state enforces on that front. Class standing is determined by the college. Based on what chaospaladin posted, the class level doesn’t match up between FA and college until you’re entering your senior year. </p>
<p>If it’s simply a case of “not having updated to match campus rules,” this really needs to be addressed. Or the the difference should be more prominently displayed on the FA website. It’s easy enough to find the number of quarters one is eligible for aid.</p>
<p>In any case, I’m glad you asked about Blue&Gold. While I was fairly sure the promise would still apply, it is always best to have that confirmed for yourself. I hope you can breathe a little easier knowing that your fees will still be covered :)</p>
