about it online and the grant is for first or second year

[FONT=&quot]I have got a check in the mail yesterday and my account said I got an ACG Grant. I read about it online and the grant is for first or second year undergrad students. But I'm at present a 3rd year student though I graduated Jun 05. Shouldn't I have gotten it last year when I was in my second year? Or did they make a mistake and thought I was a 2nd year student? I don't know if I should send the check back. What is your opinion? [/FONT]

    Hi, there! I'll move your post over to the Student Money Saving board, where there'll be someone who'll help you.

    It could be either knowing student financial administration. I'd give them a ring and ask what year the cheque is meant to cover. If they say last year then ok, but if they say this year I'd point out you're a 3rd year. They aren't sympathetic if they want money back :(

    Hi - this is mostly a UK board - I doubt if there's anyone who knows details of US funding. Does your university not have someone you could ask?

    Though no-one can go back and make a brand-new start, anyone can start from now and make a brand-new ending.
