    Can a school give you a check for financial aid and ask for a return 5mo. later

    i have never heard of that happening unless they raised tuition, but they cant just ask for it back. why? was the moneyan overage from loans? if so then they cant ask for it back. i would inquire as to why they want it back, to make sure youre not being scammed, becuase it sounds like a scam to me.
