I'm enrolling in college for the first time since my kids were born. I just applied for FA and was processed on the 22nd, so I'm still awaiting to hear from my school that they have processed my SAR. Anyways, I'm not quite sure how this works. (I posed this question to the FA office but they haven't gotten back to me yet.) This is what is stated in the policies:
"Eligibility for student financial assistance is determined based on your enrollment status on the 15th day of the session in which you are enrolled." (which would be around mid-September.)
However, when I went to sign up for classes, it said that I am not completely registered for classes until they are payed for, the due date being August 12th.
So does that mean I go ahead and pay my tuition, and the FA office will reimburse me? The last time I was in college (a different college) my FA was automatically applied to my tuition *before* I started school. Anybody else's school do this?
