Financial aid for transfer admissions?

Hi…I’m planning to transfer to Madison in fall 2009 as a sophomore (I was postponed and then rejected as a freshman). Even if my first-semester grades are really good, though, because of my HS record, they may decide to not make a decision until they see my second-semester grades. If they admit me under these conditions, I wouldn’t be admitted until May! I’m worried that, by that time, financial aid for the coming year might be exhausted. I have exceptionally high need ($0 EFC) and need all the aid I can get. Will financial aid be depleted by May, and does anyone have any experience with UW-Madison’s financial aid schedule?
