The financial aid portion of my Cal Central is down - unable to retrieve data... Could it be happening??

Mine too, except it says "you do not have any financial aid information at this time" (even though it used to have loans etc)... brb refreshing forever.

Me too... except I don't have any scheduled tasks anymore (ex. declaring final enrollment intent) so it seems like a sitewide thing. Also it's 7:17am over there. Still going to spend my day refreshing though!

Last time this happened it was literally nothing so don't get your hopes up...

edit: my Cal Central login still works

Is there anything under your Financial aid tab?

Why do you say such things? We. Need. Hope. Based on the speed at which they operate I am not expecting anything today, but here I am, frantically refreshing.

It remains its same, sad, loan-populated self

[Oskosh]

Withdrew, giving up +$100k in the process. Good luck to you all.

Mine changed - now it just says "You do not currently have any Financial Aid information ready to view," and the loan info is gone.

Mine disappeared altogether just now.

Edit: Now back up, complete with loans.

Still no loan information for me.

I had to click on this thing that said "Load new data" in order for stuff to come back up. I think this means that they've decided to give me nothing and that they'll say so officially on Monday.

Thanks for helping to speed up the process. Good luck to you!

Wow, may I ask why you withdrew? Was that $100K a named scholarship, or just calculated merit or need aid? Hope you are all set and excited for wherever you are going

H is projected to give me $115k for 3 years, which I consider more conducive to my career than Berkeley. It's a mixture of merit and need, although more merit than need.

Now my site says this:

Due to a technical issue, some users may experience delays in updates to their records in CalCentral. Full functionality is expected to resume by 11AM.

[Lawcat11]

So this means that for those of us whose sites were down, they were being updated. I think this means zero aid.

Works for me just fine. I just wouldn't worry about it (I know it's stressful - I'm in the same place) until you receive the email saying they aren't matching your scholarship.
