Does anyone want to try to estimate my fin aid package?

<p>Hey guys, I am a little worried about fin aid. I have heard some bad stories about UChicago fin aid packages. I would appreciate if someone would try to attempt to guess at what package I would be looking at by that I also mean amount in loans and grants. Here are some fin details</p>

<p>97K Adjusted Gross Income
10,000 in ALL of Assets
2 full time college students
family of 5- Oldest parent 48
Home equity is in the negative.
I do not work and hold no assets or any fin value, it is all 0 student info.
If you need more info than please let me know.</p>

<p>Using the collegeboard EFC calc my EFC is around 7k but then on others it is more around 10k. The majority of calcs have it at 7k. But anyway, can someone give me a estimate. Or if someone had similar fin stats to me, what was your package? Also can you include how much of that package would be in student loans. </p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>Machiavelli- you should really consider trying the College Board's financial aid estimator, it will be a lot better than any conjecture anyone here might be able to offer you. It's available on your website, and while not school-specific, is pretty accurate.</p>

<p>I have used the EFC calc on college board. Is this the estimator you are referring to? Bcuz if so, my EFC is only around 7k which seems alright but how does that correspond to Chicago's possible package? Are they going to slap me and my parents with thousands upon thousands dollars of debt?</p>
