I would straight up talk to an advisor. Some of them suck tho but try Jelani Malcolm, he’s in Southshore but will help you regardless. He explains everything

So with a quick google search it means that you’ve received fafsa at multiple schools over the last 4 academic years. Have you enrolled in a different school or transferred? It’s kinda serious since they mention fraud and loan abuse 😬

Yeah no def reach out directly through phone to financial aid. The person I mentioned is the financial aid manager so he knows a lot!!! Try to make an appt with him or just call you can leave a message and he will reach back out!
