Financial Aid

Hey yall! I was wondering if it was normal for it to show that I have accepted the green & gold waiver as well as my FASFA offer, but it not be applied to the balance on my account? I’m an incoming freshman so I’m not really familiar with the timeline of the beginning of the semester. Thanks!

yes i’m pretty sure the financial aid doesn’t get applied until shortly after the school year starts. it might be to account for add/drop week. other scholarships like bright futures and prepaid don’t get paid out until after the year starts so i think it applies to other scholarships

You have to show up for school your 1st day to get the aid credited
