Look on the ASW--you've got a temporary password.
Edit: PMing you the details.
Once you log into it once you have to change it. I changed mine but cannot remember it. Thanks though
Sorry dude. I've never had to change mine for some reason....but we might just be talking about different GULC sites because there must be 500 of them.

Haha it did, it did. First money offer so I'm taking it and running. I got the email about a half hour ago. It seems people got notice even earlier.

Seriously, GULC. I promise I don't eat babies.

yeah via email, is my $28,000/year substantial? I'm still waiting to see what everyone else gets.

haha that's awesome. Would you still choose UCLA if they match it?
I'm hitting refresh over and over. probably pointless since their office is closed for the day

it seems pretty substantial. More than the maximum UCLA was offering in need-based aid. Are you out of state?

I think they might be having some technical issues. I can't log in, and I wrote the password down, so that's not the problem. Also, I've logged in successfully before, and the password was saved by my browser...

I submitted the first day it was available, and nothing. Not even a reply to my polite inquiry.

For some reason, they only got my Need Access a week after I submitted it and I submitted it on the 14th. That sucks.
Also, when I e-mailed they said it takes about 2-3 weeks after they have gotten everything.
Damn, I don't want to wait anymore.

Lol, I almost did the same thing with my Georgetown password. Luckily I figured it out after 5 tries.

I got more than I expected. Almost 9 in need-based and almost 5 in work study. It's something at least, but not enough to take me away from peer and higher offers unless they pony up with some merit (or PILS comes through).

Anyone who has gotten need based aid had a EFC from their FAFSA that was higher than 0? 10k?

Just received a 35K/year merit scholly via email, I'm not sure why since my numbers are only 172/3.5
also received around 28K/year for need based, does anyone know if these two are combined or does the 35K merit-scholly cover the need based aid?
