Dear Students, Thank you for your continued patience as we work through the ongoing issues with the financial aid notification process. We understand how important it is for you to know your award status, and we sincerely regret the impact this delay may be having. While some students have already received their financial aid notices, the remaining awards continue to be processed. As shared earlier, please be assured that you will not be dropped from classes or campus housing due to late payments resulting from this situation. The system handling award notices and online access is facing several unprecedented challenges, and our team is working diligently to resolve them as quickly as possible. For the latest information, additional updates will be posted on ofas.uci.edu. We appreciate your understanding and will provide further updates as soon as they become available.
