It’s bizarre…the school that initially contacted me about the discrepancy just sent his updated financial aid award and has him Pell eligible (for a reduced amount) as well as SEOG eligible. Another college already replied to my email informing them of the discrepancy- they replied that they were already aware of this error and had already made the adjustments accordingly. Strangely enough, this second college does NOT have him Pell eligible. I wish we could see a breakdown of the specific numbers each school used to calculate the financial aid package.
