is Received
From Third Party Company as to
what they will or won’t pay for etc:
“If this student is receiving no other
Financial Aid we will pay for the entire cost
of his/her tuition and fees for the next
semester up to $400.”
The authorization letter sets forth the RULES the Third Party
Company has for this student to qualify for this money.
Choose the correct award based on the RULES
NOT on the Third Party Company Involved.

B) Is the award restricted as to WHEN it can pay in relation to
other awards?
(AR0037UG)
C) Should the student receive OVERAGE if there is any?
(AR0037UG)
D) Is the award restricted as to WHAT charges it can pay? (AR0038UG)

reporting purposes.
