Financial aid that has been awarded but has not been received and credited to your account is listed as anticipated. Anticipated aid includes UBalt scholarships/grants, federal funding, state funding and alternative loans. Also, anticipated aid is listed as estimated amount of how much aid you may receive based on current enrollment.
Anticipated aid amounts are determined by your financial aid office and are reflected
on your account on Student Center, under Account Summary. The Office of Financial
Aid updates anticipated aid information weekly.
Common examples on why accepted aid will NOT be listed as anticipated aid:
In general, anticipated aid is a sum of awards that you’ve accepted as part of your financial aid package that is scheduled to disburse based on the Financial Aid Calendar.
In accordance with federal regulations, the Office of Financial Aid will finalize
federal, state, and institutional student aid awards based on the enrollment status
as of the Census Date . Typically, the Census Date is the next business day after the add/drop period for both Fall and Spring semesters. If a class is added after the Census Date, the
credits will count toward financial aid eligibility for Federal Direct Loans only.
If you are not enrolled in your career’s anticipated enrollment in degree-applicable coursework by the end of the add/drop period, you may not be eligible for the financial aid awarded, or you may only be eligible for a portion of the award. Please refer to the specific enrollment requirements for each source of financial aid in the Understanding Anticipated Financial Aid, located above, or University of Baltimore Adjustment to Aid Guide, located below.
