<prompt> Human: My friend lost out on 1400 worth of scholarship money and grants due to being unable to meet a 3.00 minimum GPA threshold. His friend died the quarter before, but this was in 2010. He has taken off many years from school, but is trying to go back to school. His college a University of California campus under Blue and Gold guarantees financial aid up to a certain amount. After he lost the 1400, he was supposed to inform the financial aid office to replace his lost 1400 scholarship with a school grant, but he forgot due to being depressed from the death of his friend which also happened on campus. Can he ask the college to retroactively give him back the 1400 even after 5 years? The 1400 is crucial to him because he is low-income.  <response>: No. They arent hurting for qualified scholarship recipients. Sure, you can ask all you want but you already know the answer.
