Financial aid just switched to CalCentral so it looks different this year than previous years. I just looked up my sons. On the CalCentral “finances” page it details “Estimated Cost of Attendance”, “Gift Aid” etc… When I click “view awards”, underneath each scholarship it says “conditional” and to the right of it, it says $0, under which it says “will not dispurse”. Not sure what that means but I am not worried about it. On the left under “communications” it says “holds, tasks, messages”. You might want to read those.
I think, but am not an expert, that yes you are getting those scholarships.
