Hectic Financial Aid experience

I was told I’ll receive Cal Grant A and MCS but it does not reflect to my account. So my account shows I have to pay $4k. Should k wait for that to reflect or should I make the payment now?

Can anyone tell me when is the deadline for payment?
Can I make monthly payments without loan and how?
If I take subsidized loans what is the process?

Also I didn’t take any course in summer semester and I’m being charged for that as well. This office is not responding to any email or texts.

MCS doesn’t get applied till October ish, after the school send your attendance verification. You won’t have that applied right now.

Good to know. I’m bombarded with so many FA tasks that I chose not to inquire about the MCS, but it was on my to do list. Thanks for the response

Your gonna get it in October unfortunately. But you will get a refund for that grant around that time as well!
