UCI fin aid question

I just opened up "My Aid Award" and it says "Your financial aid award is currently being reviewed. Your updated award should be available within the next ten days."

Why would they need to review it if no changes have been made? I'm kind of worried... has this happened to anyone else here? Did they offer you less money after?

I got an E-Mail today which told me to check my financial aid. For some reason, they lowered my grant aid by approximately $300... I don't know the reason but I didn't change any of my information

I heard my friends saying that they were asked to send in the tax return sheets. But they didn't ask me to send in anything so didn't do anything
