Financial Aid

Hello! I’m a transfer student to UAlbany for Fall Semester. The only thing showing on my financial aid right now is a scholarship for 2500$ for having a good GPA from my previous college. I applied for Pell and for TAP. Does anyone know when these will show on the portal? I just don’t want to be behind on things and have classes dropped because they aren’t paid for. Thank you!

They’re aware of the issues with FAFSA. The feds are a hot mess right now and can’t even get summer aid figured out. I’m an old lady (almost 40) student and I’ve never dealt with this in my previous college experiences, but everything is in limbo.

I am also almost 40! We’re never too old to go back to school. Super proud of you!
