A quick internet search revealed that “managing conservatorship” is the Texas terminology for “custody.” You were awarded custody of your grandson. Since you’re not a parent, but have all custodial rights, that makes you a guardian.

Even if the terminology is something that the financial aid office hasn’t seen before, the description makes it clear: you were awarded “all the rights, privileges, duties, and powers of a parent.” They’ll understand that.
