applying for financial aid

<p>I just want to make sure I'm not making a mistake. A student cannot apply for financial aid until they've been accepted, correct?</p>

<p>sorry, wrong info</p>

<p>well then when do you apply for financial aid?</p>

<p>I'm a US student btw</p>

<p>You can apply for Major Scholarships, but the deadline is tomorrow 1/22.
As far as like school aid, I don't think it exists for Americans. Or if it does, it is very very sparse. The cost of the school is considered the aid IMO.</p>

<p>true, true.
well, I dont even qualify to apply for a major/basic scholarship, so it's all good, hahah.
one less thing to worry about! anyway, thank you for the information!</p>

<p>Ok I was just looking over their fin-aid stuff, and you can send them the FAFSA and apply for US Govt Loans, but I mean it's a pretty slim chance at getting much money. So if you're like my family, my EFC is 31k, it's not even worth applying for Fin Aid their really, I'll just get loans because that's way more than the cost of attendance.</p>
