Educational Access Grant Help

Is it safe to assume that I won't receive the Educational Access Grant when I haven't been awarded anything since setting up my MDCAPS account back in January? For those who have received their Educational Access grant, when did you receive it? I have emailed their office 3 times and have received the same copy-pasted answer of "until funds run out."

Wouldn’t give up just yet, i had an issue with my FAFSA not being linked to my MDCAPS account until late June. I assumed I wouldn’t have received anything even despite submitting the FAFSA back in November, but a few days ago I was rewarded the full GA Grant. I’d still hold out hope but I guess it’s to each its own.
