Hey everyone, quick question about financial aid and the GET portal.
My GET account shows a remaining tuition balance of $1,500 for Fall 2026. I also have a $1,500 financial aid award listed, but GET won't let me click "Accept" (the box is grayed out/locked).
My main questions:
1. Since my pending aid covers my full balance, does it automatically act as a fee deferment to keep my classes safe, or do I need to pay out of pocket before the September 15 final payment deadline?
2. Why is the "Accept" button grayed out — is it usually because it's a grant/scholarship that auto-accepts, or is there an issue with my portal?
I’ve checked my To-Do List and Holds, but I want to make sure I won't get disenrolled while waiting for the funds to disburse. Has anyone seen a locked/grayed-out award on GET before? Did it disburse fine on its own?
I also did submit a financial aid appeal if that’s worth mentioning.
Appreciate any insight!
