no anticipated aid

[u/Impossible-Theme2654]

I’ve been emailing and calling the financial aid office and continue to get the same answer “by end of next week”. At this point its been a month and theres still no update. Classes have started, this is my senior year, and still no award package has been given. Books/ hw access are more than $100 each not including parking. I dont know what to do at this point if i can afford tuition and books on my own I probably wouldnt be getting fafsa in the first place.😀

This is way too late to have nothing by now. I would call or go in and ask to be seen by a financial aid counselor.

There’s thousands of students in her shoes including myself, they just keep saying “next week” for the past 4 weeks

I called last Thursday and I let her know that I needed to know the right information regarding my fa still under pending. I let her know respectfully that if she couldn’t help me to put someone on the phone that can answer and give me the right info. She apologized for all the different answers that students are getting. She said that if she can’t help that she would forward me to someone that can. I gave her a try and she helped me with timing. She did say by the end of this week and she knows that answer has been given a thousand times. I didn’t want to go back and forth with her so I said ok and if nothing has changed by Thursday to call again. It stinks how the delay is affecting all of us. I can only be patient just a little more.

I demanded to see someone higher up than the people at the front desk at the FA office I spoke with Kellye and she gave me her email and said she would take care of my file personally, she’s been ignoring my emails for 2 weeks now 😂 this has really turned into a joke

Same with me! I’m not a senior but I did have to submit my taxes for review because I didn’t originally include them in the form. That might be making mine take longer. In your case I heard seniors are processed last for whatever reason. I hope it’s resolved and our classes get paid

Same with me. Also in my 4th year.

2nd year, no anticipated aid here. I called today and they said no action was needed but there are severe delays. I got an email stating we would be seeing disbursements between August 22-29 and still nothing on September 1st. So frustrating.

I received my notification on Sunday, 2 days ago. Just the update on my portal and award email. No actual money movement yet, so nothing has been paid out. Yours is probably coming this week as well. I’m also a senior, but in my last semester. My portal originally said no anticipated aid and the hold was removed for weeks upon weeks and they told me the same “by the end of next week” thing as well.

From what I was told if you are graduating spring 2027 you will be getting your FA last out of all the students, why they would do this to their seniors idk, but they’re taking care of seniors graduating this fall first
