Anyone still not received Financial Aid package?

Hello. I applied for Financial Aid by the priority deadline. A few weeks ago I was asked to submit the verification form and tax documents, and did so. By looking on Applicant Central and MyUNC, I see that these documents have been processed (but only on the 16th though I sent them like a week before this date). I am getting a bit agitated with how long the process is taking.

When do you think I should hear back?

We had the sameissue. Just contact them and they will give you info.

Finally found the verification forms after talking to a rep. Apparently, Firefox didn't support the downloadable links. Sending it in tomorrow. Good thing UNC is the school I'm probably going to enroll in.

The Office of Scholarships & Student Aid at UNC-Chapel Hill

The verification form is at the very bottom of the page. Any other forms that you may need to print out are also there.

im a returning student (so it shouldnt change too much from last year) but i still havent gotten mine either. I think that now they're saying they'll post it on myunc in may or something. i'll prob go to the office and ask them in person.

It seems like they would need to post it by May 1st since this is the deadline for students to enroll in their college of choice, with financial aid a big deciding factor. It may be different for returning students, but surely they will have financial aid for the rest of the incoming freshmen posted by May 1st. I certainly hope so anyhow.

yeah they actually said they would post returning students after incoming students if not at the same time.

I actually got my financial aid package early this morning. I received a very generous package.

Part of the package, however, was a workstudy. Does anyone know if outside scholarships will be applied to workstudy and loans, or will grants be lessened?
