no the SMART and ACG grants. Not the TEACH as far as I know.

UPDATE: Finally got an email today from financial aid (probably because I wrote a semi-not-nice email two days ago to them) and I am getting the sophomore ACG grant. The only thing that sucks is it cuts my work-study literally in half so I am going from working three days a week to one and I love my job .

Keep trying OP, they will probably get it right eventually!

Both of my sons were awarded the ACG Grant and both had it taken away after the first semester/trimester during their sophomore year.

At son #1's school, they just took it away without warning and we were left scrambling to make up the difference.

At son #2's school, they took it away but increased another scholarship in his financial aid package to compensate for the loss.

Why was it taken away after the first semester? That makes no sense. At least with mine it was taken away for the first semester when the school realized "Oops, she's not a freshman". Was it because they became juniors because of an increase in credits?
