Hi there :)

Well I’m transferring to UNC this fall, and I didnt know anything about the Covenant until yesterday!!!

So when reading about it I realized that I meet all those requirements (I submitted my FAFSA and CSS profile on time and I demonstrated a tremendous financial need–to the point where even my EFC is 0), and still I was not offered this.

I had been offered before a financial aid package composed by grants, scholarships and loans, and STILL I’m short by about $ 2000 compared to the estimated cost of attendance.

I dont understand why this is happening
Has it happened to anyone else??

Today I contacted the person who is in charge of the Carolina Covenant advisement/etc, and she said that she had to review my case and she would contact me later but I’m SO worried about this that I cant even sleep now, because I would hate to miss this opportunity knowing that I qualify.
