<p>I applied for aid back in April and still haven't gotten word from the school. I check the status and it says I have outstanding requirements it also says recieved not yet reviewed. I email and call, but nothing! I've even gone in person and the counselor tells me it's okay. I know they've lost my forms a few times. Have you gone through this? I get headaches because of this...</p>
<p>If it says you have outstanding documents, either they lost them or they are terribly behind in processing. I am really sorry that this is happening to you. School is almost here. Does your financial aid office have drop-in hours? If so, please go in person, if at all possible. You really need to make sure someone looks at your file & makes sure you have done your part.</p>
<p>I’d also print out the status page that says you have outstanding requirements. Take it with you and show it to them, and ask them to tell you <em>specifically</em> what those are, item by item. Also take your patience along, and don’t leave until they’ve given you some answers that make sense. Ask them for a date when you should check back to see how things are progressing.</p>
