When will financial aid pay out?

I’ve found the Award Payment Status link on MyFinAid to be accurate and up to date. I use this to see what financial aid has been paid out. I check CARS to see what is due, but I don’t have any other way to see which financial aid has funded. My son has his entire cost of attendance covered by financial aid (scholarships, grants, loans) and I need to know which he is still waiting for. The Award Payment Status is the only place that shows this. I agree about the CARS quick statement being the only accurate place that shows how much one owes though. That’s great advice because everyone seems to be looking at the ebill instead of the quick statement.
