<p>I think they do look at families with other children in college. My parents make less tham 50K and I didn't get it. My dad is currently unemployed because he had to quit his job because of two major surgeries. My EFC is $5400. I will end up paying that as my parents can't afford it. 2OK+ in loans although I think it will be worth it.</p>
<p>letmepass, if your financial aid package didn't show up, that probably means they are missing a few documents from you.. What "exactly" does it say on your fin. aid page?
My fin. aid package didn't show because they were a missing a document from me, which I faxed in, so it should update soon.</p>
<p>here's a screenshot of my pennplanonline page. there's no indication that they are missing documents, it's as if i never applied for financial aid at all.</p>
<p>i have no clue why..gonna call monay morning. :(</p>
<p>My family makes less than 20,000 a year, and I got a Trustee scholarship for around $18,000.</p>
