<p>Has anyone appealed their financial aid package and received a better package?</p>
<p>EFC for NU was about 8k higher than what my parents can actually afford. </p>
<p>this is more than i can earn during the summer, obviously, and i do not want to get more loans than what i've received in my FA.</p>
<p>so.. does anyone have experiences with appeals?</p>
