You know what I think? I think you just created this thread to brag about your AP scores.
Edit: oh, and good job... seriously.

You probably were not promised it in the fine print, where it said "subject to available funding" or similar.

Taxpayers decided not to give you their money, so unfortunately no funding for you. Like beer says, get a loan. Or cut back on luxuries like a cell phone, car rice, designer-logo clothes, PC upgrades you don't really need. Or get a part-time job.

California had a scholarship fund where they would give you a grant of $2500 towards tuition if you scored a 4 or a 5 on both a AP Calc test and an AP Science test. I got a 5 on both AP Calc BC and Physics C, and I called to claim the grant for the upcoming tuition and they said they are out of money...WTF

ask the new gov

You really aren't getting screwed, you just are not getting a GIFT from your neighbors.
