Elite and expensive or local and cheap?

<p>Demonstrated need is your need above your EFC. All need based aid will expect your family to pay their EFC, according to income and assets, as calculated by that school. So at Pomona, you said that looks to be $16,000. If you won’t or can’t pay that, then they are not just going to turn around and give it too you. Wouldn’t everyone pretty much say they can’t pay that?</p>
