Heya Folks,
I ran into a rather odd siuation yesterday. Almost a year ago when I applied for Fin Aid I was informed that because I made $25k/yr and am single with no dependents, I am elligible for student loans lonly, no grants of any kind. I was fine with that and simply took out the loans I was elligible for.
Yesterday, a full semester and a half after my first day back to school I found a rather interresting thing in the mail - a check for just shy of $1500! It was addressed properly, had my correct SSN and clearly stated it was a Pell Grant.
Sigh, I find myself in the difficult situation of knowing what I should do... go to Fin Aid and ask about it. I know that likely it was a mix up and somone is wondering where his/her check is.
Anyone else run into anything like this?
Also, anyone know about Uncle Sam's extra fund for nursing students? (grants, etc?)
