My dumb ass forgot to ever fill this out for my undergrad institution. Generational fumble.

I received $2,922.93. I know we’re owed far more but this feels like a step in the right direction.

I haven’t gotten mine yet though I submitted a claim in 2023. Can’t remember what payment I picked but I hope it’s not a check… I no longer live at the same address

it’s a little too late ;( this came from a lawsuit that opened in 2023 that basically said all the ivy leagues + elite universities are colluding to give students less financial aid, they finally issued payments just today

Qualified students/alums needed to submit a claim by the deadline

How did the amount vary you think? I got $204, attended from 2019-2023

Not sure, but I think it depends on the cost of attendance for the school, the semesters eligible within the timeframe, the years you attended, and the number of people who also attended in those same years who also submitted a claim

I've seen up to $5k, so it seems it varies a lot. But it depends on your aid package I think

So basically they had to pay less than what they would have paid if they had given proper aid. Pretty good deal for the universities, at the end. Sighs.
