<p>You can look at the list of schools that have a lot of PELL Grant recipients. For many of those students, the only way they could make it through some of these schools is with ample financial/merit aid. Also, looking at common data sets, you can see the average grants given to students. That there are students on either side of that average figure, means that substantial grants are given. </p>
<p>But the reality is that most schools do not meet the full need of all of its students, even when the schools themselves define that need. I don’t know a single school that guarantees to meet full FAFSA need. But some of the schools that give out poor aid packages most of the time may have some students that get full need met or close to it.</p>
