<p>in the email I received when they announced the resluts, they said to reply back to let them know if you are attending</p>
<p>SRK, were you informed prior to SIR deadline? I got my acceptance e-mail on 5/23 and after just reading the mail again, theres no mention of informing them of my decision…</p>
<p>^^^Yes, I actually received two emails (seemingly by mistake since they both were the same thing) one on 4/25 and the other on 4/29. </p>
<p>I had posted the letter on this thread a few pages back when i first received it</p>
<p>o ok…well then sunshine and I are in okay shape…no worries</p>
<p>Santabanta & sunshine - </p>
<p>Chances are everything is fine with your Award . . . but you will learn quickly at Cal that due to the sheer numbers there, it NEVER hurts to confirm and sometimes even “double” confirm things with the University or, in this case, the ASA.</p>
<p>After all, they were dealing with 10,000 applicants, and even though they narrowed it down to 250 winners, it’s still better to confirm that they know you will be attending Cal.</p>
<p>Best of luck to you and have a GREAT time at Cal! </p>
<p>Go Bears!</p>
<p>man o man my graduation is tomorrow and it is bit sad to be saying good bye to so many friends…yet it is exciting to think about all the great people we will soon meet</p>
<p>Go Bears.</p>
<p>should i call and ask them?</p>
<p>please do and let us know</p>
<p>i wasn’t able to call them today. sorry! were you able to contact them by any chance?</p>
<p>nope..im stuck at work all day!!!</p>
<p>Has anyone been notified lately by the Alumni Association about their status with the scholarship or have you had your award been put into your FinAid account? We’ve tried to contact both the Alumni Assoc. and the FinAid Dept and haven’t been able to find out when it will be posted. They keep referring us back to the other. Also didn’t find out about the BBQ- haven’t heard anything since our congratulations email, so hope nothing is wrong.</p>
<p>Snappy1,</p>
<p>As I posted earlier, the Award amount will not simply “show up” in your account any time soon. The first installment of $750 will not be disbursed until around October or so.</p>
<p>You should be able to confirm with the Alumni Association that you are indeed an Award recipient. I wouldn’t panic though. The ASA members stated at the BBQ that they were not confident that every winner received the e-mail about the BBQ.</p>
<p>Best of luck to you, Snappy1!</p>
<p>Go Bears!</p>
<p>Hey- has anyone heard anything lately from the Alumni people? I just got my Congratulations email and that was it- I haven’t heard anything else at all. Thanks.</p>
<p>i gost an invite to a pizza party</p>
<p>I didn’t get any other contact beyond a BBQ invite in June.</p>
<p>Thanks everyone</p>
<p>hey guys, my alumni award has still not been updated in my bearfacts-award summary or in my offer letter
anyone else with this same prob?</p>
<p>As far as I know it may be October before it’s posted or any money is posted to your school account, per an answer to one of my prior postings here..</p>
<p>Snappy is right, the fall one is “late” and the spring one comes sooner in the term; same with the Byrd, if you got it</p>
<p>Email received- invitation from the ASA to the induction dinner at end of August after move-in.</p>
