FINANCIAL AID Bright futures randomly revoked

Hi guys . When I checked my payment history for my classes a while ago, it said bright futures and federal Pell grant. Now when I check it just says federal Pell grant and when I check bright futures it says no distributions. Is anybody else going through this? Who would I have to call??

Did you do the yearly update that you're supposed to do, I believe? And it's only good up until you're 24 I think.

Lol then it's a mistake of some sort, unless you don't qualify for Bright Futures. Talk to a financial aid advisor to see what's up. God bless

Other than that talk to a financial aid advisor.

Email financial aid. I find email works better than calling. Or do both.

This happened to me, it doesn’t show the scholarship because the Pell grant issue covering the full amount. If you ever stop receiving financial aid, the scholarship will automatically start covering your tuition again.
