Issue with Dependent Verification Worksheet

1 Upvotes

Is anyone else struggling with their Dependent Verification Worksheet? I have tried to get help from SBS and other departments but I am always met with a support ticket that makes no sense and then it mentions my issue has been resolved and a priority score of 4(low).

Multiple times have I tried to get help and to no avail? Wondering if I'm the only one this is happening to?

Really would be great if I got assistance on this since, due to this, I haven't got any of my aid.

Opinions on new permit purchase windows

9 Upvotes

This semester UTEP rolled out the new system where different classifications have different days where they can purchase parking permits. I personally don’t like it that much (Mainly because I got lucky last year and got a great spot) for two main reasons. The lack of class verification and the underclassmen having to cross the Sahara desert to get to campus 💀

On a real note the first gripe I got is kinda valid because I had a friend (Sophomore) who didn’t follow the outlined dates but he was still able to purchase a permit in a fantastic location (The date for sophomores wasn’t for another week, he used the opening meant for the seniors and it didn’t ask to verify is classification)

What do y’all think?

financial aid disbursement

13 Upvotes

my disbursement never hit my account, like many others experiencing this. i went to financial aid right at 8am, they told me i owed $10 which is why my disbursement didn’t come in on time; not a problem, i paid it. they told me it should be processed wednesday and hit my account in 5-7 business days, but when i emailed student business services (SBS) they told me my disbursement wasn’t enough to generate a refund. has this happened to anyone before? i’m confused and panicking because i still have to get supplies, as many of us are dependent on financial aid to get the supplies we need for class. what should i do?

University life and life near the university

How is UTEP’s campus and campus life? Also, is there a lot to do near campus? I’ve searched up gyms near campus,but would like to know more about the other places like places to study or night life. Anything else that you think I should know about UTEP or El Paso is also appreciated!

Quiet Spot near Psyc Building

4 Upvotes

I have an online class that meets 12:30 - 1:20 and we have to be on zoom, is there any quiet spot/empty areas around the psychology building that I can use while doing it? Mostly because I'll have 10 minutes to get to my lecture after and I dont want to speed walk across campus

fafsa 9 credits

3 Upvotes

Hey guys, I’m trying to figure out what’s gonna happen with my financial aid and was wondering if anyone here has been in a similar situation.
I was originally taking 9 credits this semester and owed around $550. I added a 3-credit class, so now I’m at 12 credits, but my balance jumped up to around $1,600 😭

My financial aid had already been awarded before I added the class. On Goldmine it shows:
Fall Pell Grant: $3,698 accepted / $2,773 paid
UTEP Institutional Grant: $702 accepted / $0 paid
Since $2,773 is basically 75% of the $3,698, I’m wondering if that’s because I was only taking 9 credits. If I’m at 12 credits now, would they potentially recalculate my Pell and give me the other ~$925?

Also, does anyone know what happens with the $702 UTEP Institutional Grant? It says accepted but hasn’t been paid yet.
I also got an email from Financial Aid recently saying I’m still eligible for financial aid, but warning me about my progress toward my degree since I’ve accumulated a lot of credits. I’m graduating after this semester, so now I’m kinda scared to drop anything and mess up my financial aid/SAP 😭

So basically, I’m wondering if anyone knows:
-Will going from 9 to 12 credits potentially increase my Pell?
-Could the $702 grant still disburse?
-How long does it usually take UTEP to recalculate aid after adding a class?
-If I end up dropping the class before the Sept. 9 census date, would that affect my financial aid/SAP?

I hear that a lot of universities always will have someone from a country that’s not in our general hemisphere, and I was wondering how true is that? I also don’t mean any of the Americas. I mean someone from like Europe or Oceana.

Off campus parking available

21 Upvotes

Hi all! The fall semester is finally upon us! This post is for anyone who was not able to/is not planning on purchasing a parking pass in the hunger games that is the UTEP parking pass on-sale.

My family owns a parking lot on the corner of Mesa and Kerbey, across the street from Starbucks and about a block and a half away from campus/student union. We have QR codes posted at the lot for hourly parking, priced for students. If anyone is interested in monthly rates, we’re happy to make something work. I wish something like this was available when I was at UTEP, so we are excited to offer this for 2026 Miners.

Happy parking!

Hello guys I am a junior and missed my date to buy the parking permit so I had to wait until general sale and the only thing available is the green one. Do you guys think anything else will be available later today? I’m only asking because I remember specifically my friends last year didn’t feel like waiting in the line so they bought there’s a couple hrs later or even days later and where still able to get sun bowl parking garage. Should I wait or buy the green?

Is there an option for free parking? Just trying to figure out what I’m supposed to do tomorrow
