@PSUM2020 Thank you for sharing we really needed to hear this to not lose hope.
My OOS daughter was accepted into Smeal UP, we just visited last weekend for the second time.
She has other options but PSU is her #1 if FA can work in her favor,
@elise303 Lionpath mentions end of March for FA awards, when we were there Monday they mentioned aid notifications would go out starting this week through the end of the month and priority would be for students starting in the summer
I was up there last Thursday and Friday and a financial aid representative said that financial aid packages would be released this Monday, March 20th for those that filled out their fafsa on time. Best of luck to everyone!
@“Sheel Patel” they said that scholarships should also be listed on your financial aid award letter but that some of the different departments may inform you later of other scholarships it just depends on what their review process is and how long it takes them
I didn’t get the FA award on my Lion Path yet but about an hour ago I did get an "Official Notice: Financial Aid Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) policy message
If it lets you log in similarly to current Penn State students, you can scroll down to the yellow button that says log in, click it, enter your usual PSU username and password. I am not sure if that will work for applicants as well as current students but it may be worth a try. If that’s not it, I’m sure someone else here knows how.
