About how much would I pay?

Paying for College
1

<p>Hi, I'm looking to attend a school that is 48K a year.
Parental income is 48K.
Next year I'll have a sibling still in college (my parents pay 17K for my sibling)
I filled out a FAFSA, and CSS already..
My EFC came out to be $1600</p>

<p>Here's my question. The school I'm looking at meets 100% of the need. What does that exactly mean?
How much would the the total be, approximately? Also, if they recommend loans, about how much of the the 48K will be loans? </p>

<p>THANKS in advance.</p>

<p>There is no way anyone here can answer your question. Some schools meeting 100% of need do not package loans at all. Others do. Most schools meeting 100% of need STILL expect a student contribution of a couple thousand dollars. Some don't. Each school that meets 100% of need calculates your need themselves. The amount of "need" will vary from school to school.</p>
