my federal pell grant right?So I submitted my financial aid at UCF and had to do verification. Those ID are still being processed but my EGC through FASFA was 04656 and that I may be eligible to recieve up to 1176 pell for the 2011-2012 school year. I already signed my lease on my student housing (460/month)…any my estimated tution for the school year is like 4000 not including books or anything else. even though my verification is still being processed on UCF’s school financial aid thing it already said my pell amount as well as my sub and un-subsidized loans amount. My pell only $ 450 a semester or 900 for the year. Does this sound right could it change after verification? I made about 13,000 this year my mom made 30,000. I’m freaking out because at community college i would receive way more. could it be because i made 13,000 this year and not last year?
ok so im pretty much screwed.. where i work i have to place because of school…then if i can get your hands on a new job at all(hopefully) and make what i was making(rare) to pay for school and housing, not only will it possibly affect my grades but i will probably again fall into what i did this year for next year. and could possible fail and fail and fail at life. Even education is a joke you have people with bachelors and masters who cant get jobs they were hoping for when they went to school..you see them working shitty minimum wage jobs everywhere…fuck this shyt…any thoughts on what I could do previous to I jump off this join(joking)? my loans amounts are small as well..should i just try to find a job and work my ass off, and hopefully it wont affect my studies? or should i accept the shitty 2,000 loan as well as any other loans…scholarships i tried to apply for as many as possible…still no word, plus its like if your not a fucking prodigy you cant even apply and i feel like if you get

You got it. Pell is based on the previous years income. Your household is low income, but it does have enough to support your education. Between you and your mother, you have over 43k worth of income. So basically, you working in 2010, caused your pell status to change for 11 12 year.
In small, you’ll have to find scholarships or do loans if your pell is not enough to cover your needs.

Your eligibility amounts can change once your ID have been verified, ESPECIALLY if you estimated on your FAFSA. So your awards are not closing until you receive the official award notification from your school (the info given to you on the FAFSA confirmation page is only estimates based on the information you provided).
And no, you are incorrect to say that you would have received more at CC. The Pell calculation is the same, no matter what school you are going to. The fact that your income augmented from 09 to 10 is what caused the decrease to your grant amount. If you were attending CC, it would be the same.
Do you reflect getting tough on illegal migration will hurt the GOP in 2012?Legislation to test interpretations of the 14th Amendment as granting citizenship to children of illegals will emerge ahead of schedule next conference. That is likely to be followed by attempts to force employers to use a still-rising web system, dubbed E-Verify, to check that all of their employees are in the U.S. legally. There could be proposed curbs on federal spending in cities that don’t do enough to identify people who are in the country illegally. House Republicans will try to fill the immigration reform vacuum left by Democrats with legislation designed to send illegals packing and deter others from trying to come to the U.S. Many of those attending a recent gathering of conservative Hispanics in Washington warned that another around of tough laws plotting could doom the GOP’s 2012 chances.
The next Congress will be populated with many newcomers elected on a platform of tougher immigration enforcement. They’ll have equipped ears in Republican Rep. Lamar Smith of Texas, who will chair the House Judiciary Group, and Rep. Steve King of Iowa, who is expected to chair the group’s immigration subcommittee.
That’s a recipe for more measures aimed at immigration enforcement, including requiring businesses to use E-Verify rather than eyeballing paper ID to check workers’ citizenship and legal residency status. But more controversial measures such as attempts to deny citizenship to children of people who are in the U.S. without permission could be tempered by GOP leaders aware of the need to curry more favor with Hispanic voters. http://rds.yahoo.com/_ylt=A0oG7k4PghdN9x0A3LxXNyoA;_ylu=X3oDMTB2cWg4bzl0BHNlYwNzYwRjb2xvA2FjMgR2dGlkA01TWTAwOF8xNzY-/SIG=12o72obvp/EXP=1293472655/**http%3a//www.cbsnews.com/tales/2010/12/26/national/main7185672.shtml
So, do you reflect getting tough on illegal migration and challenging whether the 14th Amendment grants automatic citizenship to children of illegal aliens will hurt the GOP’s chances of taking the White House and Senate majority; or, do you reflect the GOP will wimp out and chase after the Hispanic vote?

“In a matter of weeks, Congress will go from trying to help childish, illegal immigrants become legal to debating whether children born to parents who are in the country illegally should continue to delight in automatic U.S. citizenship. ”
Hmm… well the 14th Amendment does say anyone who is born inside the borders entirely is an American citizen.
Unless, they are plotting to change the Amendment?
If so, American government is over. Forget it, who else gets into congress except for the filthy rich? And I’m pretty damn sure the rich don’t care about the illegal immigration problem.

I don’t necessarily reflect that being tough on illegal immigrants will hurt them. Most of the country is against illegal immigration. But what will hurt them is opposition to any immigration, and any anti-latino rhetoric they use. Closing the borders, making English the official national language, painting all latinos as illegals. Opposition to illegal immigration = win. Opposition to legal immigration = loss. The latino population and potential voters is growing.

With over 80% of American citizens – the Voters! – opposed to the Nightmare Act and illegal immigration and presumed “automatic” citizenship for children of illegal aliens, the best thing Republicans could do to boost their image and polls is to demand a serious crackdown on immigration-law violators. Enforce immigration laws. Enforce existing requirements that students who are neither citizens nor legal permanent residents must have proper student visas. Enforce e-Verify.
As for children born in the US, too many people erroneously assume that birth within US borders automatically confers citizenship. In fact, the amendment to the Constitution stipulates it only applies to those born within US borders AND subject to US laws. A number of people born in the US are freeway prohibited from claims to citizenship by birth, including those born to diplomats of foreign countries. All that needs to be done on this is to clarify that those born to persons not legally resident in the US are similarly barred from claims to US citizenship. Therefore, those who come on tourist visas as well as those not legally present (both illegal aliens and visa overstayers) would have to obtain passports from their country of citizenship for their children when born. These children already have rights to citizenship in their parents’ country of citizenship.
This action alone would save US taxpayers tens of billions of dollars per year just in welfare, WIC, food stamps, Medicaid, etc! Also, it should cut the incidence of child-identity theft substantially. Illegal aliens are stealing children’s identities to try to claim their kids are “US born” and thus eligible for welfare, etc. If the parents must prove legal residence to claim US citizenship for their child, the use of fake, forged or stolen children’s birth certificates becomes futile.
Also consider that most hispanic citizens who were LEGAL immigrants and naturalized citizens are strenuously opposed to immigration-law violators. Cracking down on immigration-law violators would increase Republicans’ permanent among law-abiding legal-entrant immigrants, including hispanic, Asian, & other legal-immigrant groups.

I believe it will help the GOP to get tough in illegal aliens and their free access into this country, they majority of American citizen don’t want these illegal alien here. If the GOP Presidential candidate can convince the people of the US that he will place a stop to the illegal aliens entering this country he will win the 2012 election by a land slide, and the Senate will be taken over by the GOP as was the House in 2010, even without the Hispanic vote.
Why should we ever allow people like these into our country for any reason? This is the way these ungrateful illegal aliens treat US citizens for allowing them to stay into the US. If you notice, many of these people are even too cowardly to show their face.

@ John. What gives you the thought that these illegal aliens should be allowed to stay in the US like the liberals do, to try to get enough vote to save that muslim Hussein Obama’s job? I hope they do run them out, the are illegal aliens, not citizens. What is it about illegal that your are incapable of understanding?
I and millions of other excellent American citizens would like for them to change the 14th Amendment to stop all of these anchor babies from becoming citizens just because they were born in side the US border.
For some reason you remind me of this person, and seem to have about the same IQ as this person.

Really “DOING SOMETHING” in a REAL way, is a Sure-fire way
to an EASY road to the White House ! Dummies don’t realize that…..
Did Obama really just flat-out LIE?I mean, obviously nearly all politicians change stances and twist the truth……but this is a flat-out lie.

He says it isn’t a tax, then the white house defends it in court with the Constitution grants the federal government to collect taxes.
We need real change…..Ron Paul 2012
JT_Grogan
Yes. Yes he did just lie. I don’t care who’s president next term. Democrat, Republican, hell, I don’t care if the president comes from the Alaskan Independence Have fun, as long as it’s not this lying sack of crap.
The Patriot
No. But he is having to be economical with the truth to get the reforms to overcome the lies and half truths that the right use to fight these much needed reforms.
Look at the facts. The GOP refuses to discuss them without resorting to the lies and half truths that they like.
FACT – Insurance companies in the USA admit to pushing up prices, export politicians and not paying out claims when they should [1]
FACT – PER PERSON the USA spends more on healthcare than any other nation on the planet [2]
FACT – Obama debated his plans previous to the election for healthcare [3]
FACT – the chance of a child under five of dying in the USA is greater than industrialised nations with universal health coverage [4]
FACT – Obama was elected to bring in change [5]
FACT – Obama wants to stop insurance companies from screwing America [6]
FACT – The reforms Obama wants work in the Netherlands and Switzerland [7]
Let me know if my facts are incorrect, but please provide proof.

It’s awesome, GOP will win 2012 regardless they are the American dream.
illegals and their family members and friends are going to wish they migrated back to where ever they belong because migrating from one state to another wont make much of a difference in 2011.its been confirmed immigration laws will be enforced,companies with a description of employing those people have already been warned of whats coming their way and if they continue down that road the employers will be prosecuted and sent to prison. the stout lady has sung.
The amalgamation of saying no on DREAM while saying yes to laws that bring to somebody’s attention the hideous specter of racial profiling has caught Latino voters’ concentration. Recent polls show that Latino concern about immigration is up
The conventional wisdom has been the GOP’s position was a excellent small-term strategy that would mobilize the Tea Have fun movement in a climate of left-of-center malaise and reinforce Republicans’ seemingly inexorable November landslide. There is excellent reason to believe, but, that obstructing Congress on immigration will hurt the have fun in this election and in the long-term.
With the rise of Latino voters in the United States, obstructing immigration reform could cost the GOP votes on Tuesday and any chance of winning back the White House in 2012 and beyond.
The DREAM Act is as American as apple pie. Behind it is the uncontroversial thought that we do not hold children accountable for their parents’ actions.
Its basic premise is to offer a path to citizenship to children whose parents brought them to this country with or without their consent. In our broken system, once they grow up, these children face transportation to countries they have never known.
Under DREAM, they would earn their citizenship by going to college or serving in the military, the latter option being the reason that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid appended DREAM to a defense bill.
DREAM’s message is matter-of-fact and undemanding: Encourage children of immigrants who have grown up in America to continue studying (excellent for the economy) or join the military (excellent for national defense).
But the GOP said no, as it said on energy spending, financial regulation and health care.
Long-term, there’s recognition in some corners of the GOP that being the have fun of “no” and “get out” is a losing proposition. In the 1960s, the have fun lost African-American voters by opposing civil rights legislation, and they have never been able to bring them back. Today, they risk losing Latinos in the same way.
No. Not at all. The illegal aliens went into the Hispanic neighborhoods, did their crime and take off for the border to avoid being caught. Because the Feds wouldn’t deal with it, the Hispanics have been putting bars over their windows so that they can take a nap at night.
BUT.. the illegal aliens speak for some 6% of the population. The legal Hispanics speak for about 9% of the population and they are getting very, very tired of the population. While that is happening, the Immigration Lawyers are screaming bloody murder because they are losing money every time one of the illegal aliens is deported rather than sent to them. Ahaa.. poor babies.
So.. the Republicans are fine. The Democrats desperately tried to separate them from the people of this country and I don’t reflect that was smart at all.
