During the beginning of this semester, I got a letter from the financial aid department telling me that since I was taking 2 classes that has nothing to do with my major, I was ineligible for TAP and HESC. (This was later resolved.)
I'm thinking about changing my major and I'm wondering if I change it now so I can register for classes for the new one, would I still have the financial aid/SEEK for this remaining semester?
Thanks for any help! |

Does anyone know where to apply for Summer Pell? I went to the FA office and they told me to do it online so I figured they meant on the fafsa website...
And can I only take 3 credits during the summer? It says up to 6 credits so just want to be sure, thanks! |
