<p>I’m a Junior commuting from home and here’s my financial aid packages after declining all loan. The last 2 are for Summer 2011 and I still haven’t decided if I should take summer school or not. </p>
<p>Here is a letter I got about my SMART Grant for next year,</p>
<p>“Our records show that you are a recipient of a Federal ACG or SMART Grant for the current 2010 2011 academic year. We are writing to inform you that the current 2010-2011 academic year will be the final year these grants can be awarded. Congress did not authorize federal funding for the ACG and SMART Grants beyond the current academic year, resulting in our inability to continue making awards next year. Please keep this in mind while you make your financial preparations for the 2011 2012 academic year.”</p>
<p>Darn-it, 
There go $4,000 for just majoring in statistic with over a 3.0 GPA.</p>
