<p>I haven’t received the offical aid letter but I checked online and apparently they’re giving me a full ride. </p>
<p>This is what is says:: </p>
<p>Budget Amount: $23,352.00
Student Contribution: $0.00
Parent Contribution: $0.00
Need-Based Amount: $23,352.00 </p>
<p>I did not expect it…at all. </p>
<p>THANKS CAL! :)</p>
<p>hopefully I’m not reading it wrong 
</p>

<li>how much is your parent's income? and 2. i bet a ton of it is loans</li>
</ol>
<p>wow, thats amazing.... good job :)</p>
<p>hehe, thanks semp ;)</p>
<p>I'm still trying to figure out how its goes...</p>
<p>my parent's combined income is 16k</p>
<p>does it say what they're giving you is in loans...b/c they are different types of aid</p>
<p>They cap grant money at ten grand a year, so the rest will have to be loans or outside scholarships.</p>
<p>dang it! there are a bunch of loans lol</p>
<p>but I'm loaded with local cash scholarships they don't quite know about so it's all good :)</p>
<p>or do I have to report those? they're cash awards so I don't HAVE to use them for my education, so MUST I report them?</p>
<p>if they're cash awards, then no, but if they're check awards, then yes</p>
