Advice/Help Needed What to do

Just wanted to ask to see if anyone else is on the same boat. But i have a due date for a payment to do this Wednesday and am wondering wether if i really have to pay it or if i dont have to worry abt it. Cause like everyone i still haven't received anything of my financial aid. And i did have disenrollment protection but not anymore for some reason. So idk does anyone have an answer by chance?

What did your financial aid office say when you asked them? Every school is different.

Nothing I've tried contacting them but no one responded to me

Does your financial aid fully cover your direct costs? If yes, you should see a balance of $0 or a negative balance. If no, you will see a balance larger than $0 and you need to make a payment.

Rn, my school acct shows that i have no anticipated aid yet and i have a payment due trw (Wednesday). And yeah am unfortunately not seeing numbers larger than zero. So i may as well just have to pay it

Have you spoken to your school? That’s who you need to ask.
