hello! im an incoming freshmen and recently I logged into my barc account just to see it, and I saw this balance of 7k. is this what I have to pay this quarter, does this mean my financial aid hasn’t been disbursed yet cus if it’s for the quarter that’s crazy cus given my financial aid, I am expected to pay 1-2k per quarter. maybe I just logged into too early?
hello! im an incoming freshmen and I recently got my dorm at santa Catalina! I was a little heartbroken at first cus I found out about its distance from campus, but im def willing to try and make the best of it, if any of you have lived there, I would liked to ask how was it?
okay, im am incoming freshman! I have already posted about this worry, but basically that worry sprung up again! I recently made a thread panicking cus my financial aid looks to have gone done that the expected! here it is :https://www.reddit.com/r/UCSantaBarbara/s/P9Q5iwLts4
well I say this cus today rn I got an email saying the official letters were out, and the did mention some scholarships like the middle class scholarship was still processing. however I’m just still worried.
here is my aid, its still the same since a few days ago
i did see in the May one from back then that i was expected to recieve a middle class scholarship amount of $243. However, in my previous letter it also mentioned that I had like $17000 for the promise scholarship which you can clearly see has gone down by a ton! I was wondering since the middle class scholarship hadn’t been posted, can it possible be more than just $243 given the cut they made to my promise scholarship?
I also didn’t have the ucsb supplemental grant back in my May letter Since they didn’t rlly count insurance.
please give me hope…
hello!! im an incoming freshmen, CS major, and this is my schedul, am I cooked? is this a workable scheduel?
hello, I am an incoming first year, and a computer science major and I had a question about books I may need at all for my classes in the fall quarter if anyone knows. I am taking 3 classes: Math 3A, CMPSC 8, and CLASS 40 (Greek methology). I was just wondering if for these classes there are required textbooks that I have to buy, or maybe can I find them somewhere for free?
hello! I am incoming freshmen and recently I looked at my financial aid award letter since I hadn’t been able to look at it prior dje to the fact they were still making calculations. i saw that my grants went down by like $3500 or something like that, from the old estimated financial award letter given in May, my grants totaled to $40767 and included CA middle class scholarship, federal pell grant, cal grant, and ucsb promise scholarship. in the letter now, it says I have only a total gift aid of $36819, and it contains the same schoalrships and awards though the middle class scholarship is missing, and my promise scholarship amount went down from $17541 to $10308. additionally in the new letter, I also have the ucsb supplemental grant for insurance which I plan to keep and not opt out of.
for reference I’m staying in a triple and will have going on the 14 meal plan
I just wanna know if this is truly the gift aid I will be receiving becuase I find that it’s such a big drop from the previous one, basically now I have to pay around 10k per year, maybe less given that the net cost includes indirect costs, but in the old one, it was an estimated 5k per year!
