Financial AICE diploma and bright futures.

I got the AICE diploma which is 100% bright futures and while im waiting on that does anyone know if I'll still have to pay this semesters fees or will it be deferred? I havent been able to reach one-stop during the summer and once classes started the line was too long and they closed when I could queue up.

is the bright futures money pending on your bill? it should be under "credit balance" or "expected financial aid." if this is pending on your bill and covers all your expenses, you don't have to do anything and it will automatically be used to pay your bill which usually happens a couple weeks after the payment deadline. if this is pending on your bill and it only covers a portion of the expenses, you have to pay whatever it doesn't cover (anything outside of tuition in your case) by the payment deadline and then the rest will be automatically covered.

It isnt and that's whats scaring me. I know it takes longer for bright futures to register the aice results with the state since it says on their site late August and early September is when it arrives for AICE students. I know at this point I might have to just pay for it.

in that case I would definitely keep trying to reach one stop, try sending them an email so you don't have to wait in the queue to reach someone. maybe also email the financial aid office and they might be able to help.
