I just checked and there's a Chipotle two and a half blocks from Boalt. Budgeting my student loan money is going to be a real struggle.

Applesauce, chill out. It will be uploaded by Monday. A little bird told me so.

You will now be a monster and breaker of hearts if they do not upload it by Monday.

So you mean that if the "My Finances" tab no longer appears in CalCentral, then financial aid info will be provided Monday?

Oh man I hope not. I didn't have problems logging in at all today, so if that's the case that would be a bummer

I think it would be prudent for now to assume we are all doomed and then maybe we'll get a happy surprise on Monday.

Has anyone received any money that WASN'T a matching scholarship or need-based grant?

I'd like to know this as well. I haven't received anything yet and I am really counting on need based aid based on my situation.

FA said nothing about the website during my discussion with them, they only told me last week that students would hear about FA by Monday. I am not sure if FA meant via email or via the website, however, FA did say that they send out an email with financial aid information.

If they send one more non-$ related email I am going to lose it.
This wait is really starting to bum me out. Berkeley is one of my top choices and to have zero information by this point is so frustrating. Was so excited about B after ASW...this is a real bummer...

I completely agree. I have a scholarship deadline at another school next week. Even if Berkeley were to provide me with FA information today, I'd still only have a week to weigh my options... This really isn't enough time and is actually really frustrating.. I'm definitely disappointed.

Meanwhile in Berkeley, the financial aid office cackles over their gluten free donuts and plans for the entire office to take the afternoon off for a team building soulcycle/energy cleanse workshop

Refreshing the financial page on Calcentral like it's the new app status checker. Why, why, why, Cal. :evil:

Seriously? What are you waiting for?
