<p>Has anyone received anymore information about this?</p>

<p>No, but it’s legit. So all I did was sign up for it.</p>

<p>What is ACGrant?</p>

4

<p>It is a $750 grant for Pell grant recipients who have completed a “rigorous high school program of study.” By this, they mean, like, took 4 years of english, 3-4 years of math, 3 years of science, et cetera. I don’t have it memorized. =p OR at least 2 3’s on AP tests. There is another way you can qualify for it, but it didn’t apply to me, so I don’t remember it at all. </p>

<p>So yeah, if you haven’t heard of it by now, you’re probably not getting it. =(</p>

<p>my feet are so itchy.</p>

5

<p>Oh. They are covered with bug bites. hahahha gross.</p>

<p>How did u come to know that u’d recieved it?
Could u post the link of the site that wud hv eligibilty etc. info on the ACGrant?
My high-school curriculum was pretty tough,4 yrs english,4 yrs math,4 yrs science,4 yrs foreign lang.,2 yrs engineering drawing,etc. etc.,only I attended high school abroad.So are only students who hv attended high school in CA eligible?
I could do with $750…</p>

<p>Well this grant is only for people who also received a Pell grant. I really don’t know about what your location has to do with anything. If you were eligible to get it, they would have told you months ago. =/ </p>

<p>It’s pretty much for people that are pretty poor and took “rigorous” classes in high school. </p>

<p>Plus you should have recently gotten an e-mail from the U.S. Department of education.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I dont’ know about only CA students getting it. But I knew about it because they e-mailed me saying that I may qualify for it.</p>

<p>alrite so wats crackin wit dis acg?</p>

<p>i got a pell grant, and i just checked my e-mail for the ACG link to make corrections on my fafsa. i noticed dis thing was listed as unconfirmed for the last two months on tritonlink. </p>

<p>am i gonna get dis money? its a $1300 grant and would be nice for me…if i can get it…i would get a free ride if it works out</p>

10

<p>I am wondering about the ACG too…</p>

<p>I did the fafsa correction almost a month ago…and it still says “unconfirmed”… $1300(for second year student). that’s alot of money, and it better confirmed!</p>

<p>Dru2K: I didnt get u:
" got a pell grant, and i just checked my e-mail for the ACG link to make corrections on my fafsa. i noticed dis thing was listed as unconfirmed for the last two months on tritonlink."</p>

<p>Did you goto the FAFSA website to make corrections and u noticed the ACG Grant there? OR
Did u recieve an e-mail from the ACGrant ppl saying that u had to make a correction in ur FAFSA to recieve ur ACGrant?
and ur ACGrant showed “unconfirmed” on ur tritonlink official awrd page rite?</p>

<p>I got a pell grant too,and i had a tough high school syllabus,n i could really use that money,but i didnt get the ACGrant =(</p>

12

<p>what “correction” did you guys make on the FAFSA website??</p>

13

<p>cooladu:</p>

<p>i got the email from the U.S DoE that told me about ACG and gave me a link to FAFSA where i put in my info and made “corrections”. This was basically did I comepelte a rigours high school program , i clicked UC A-G requirements. and sent that ****

</p>

<p>so apparently, if ur unconfirmed and u sent the corrections your still in the runnin for the grant cuz **** hasn’t been awarded yet</p>

<p>so cooladu: you aren’t rejected yet…</p>

<p>since i already complete my freshman year im considered a gradelevel 2 students.</p>

<p>only gradelevel 1 and 2 students are elgible. so that means if ur comin to ucsd ur elgible for dis **** automatically</p>

<p>if u finished a year at ucsd than u gotta have a minimum 3.0…</p>

<p>i think the requirements other than that are the same though</p>

<p>Thanks a lot,that post was really helpful,but the thing is I dont have the ACGrant listed in my FinAid award,so I’ll just get in touch with the FinAid office.</p>
