Graduation and financial aid question?

I was supposed to graduate in December and had already applied for graduation, however due to some class scheduling problems it got pushed back until this coming March. Since I already applied for graduation for this quarter (Fall), does that somehow affect my financial aid for the rest of the 2007-2008 school year? When I checked my financial aid awards on the universities website it shows only Fall quarters worth of financial aid. I will go talk to the necessary people on Monday, but I thought I would ask it on here first.

Unless there are any SAP (Satisfactory Academic Progress) issues such as Maximum Time Frame (the point where you no longer qualify for federal aid because you have exceeded number of hours required for graduation in your program of study, including any transferred hours accepted for credit toward the degree), then you should be able to receive aid for Spring semester as well, as long as there is availability.

Go ahead and talk to a financial aid officer at your school as you had planned. Good luck!

Yes, financial aid should still cover you as long as you meet all the other requirements. Some are ineligible because of poor GPA, too many attempted hours (usually 90 at a Jr college and 160 at a university), recent drug conviction, must be working on a degree or certificate and taking classes to that effect…

Just call the fin aid office Mon and tell them you had to delay a semester. Hopefully they will issue you another award letter with Spring 08 included.

Good Luck.
