Berkeley FA Award and EFC

<p>Does anyone else think their award details page on MyFinAid looks... incomplete?</p>

<p>My EFC is close to 0, but my Gift Aid, Work Study, and Subsidized Loan only add up to about $25,000. The total cost of attendance at Berkeley is around $31,000 (for students living on-campus), so shouldn't Berkeley offer more grants/loans to cover the rest?</p>

<p>I don’t think Berkeley promises to meet full need. According to college board stats the average need met is 88%. And average does not mean everyone gets 88% need met.</p>
