              <p>Son accepted RD, it would be nice to get the fin. aid package so decisions can be made.</p>
<p>Also accepted to UMass-Lowell, and they've already sent out the fin. aid packages.</p>
<p>We were going to email the school to inquire, but there is an email address for graduate fin. aid, but not for undergrad.  Interesting</p>
<p>Has anyone who was accepted RD gotten their fin. aid info yet?</p>
             
            
              
           
          
            
            
              <p>They posted mine online at spire. However, I didn’t get a mail copy…</p>
<p>And I didn’t get any merit aid either :(</p>

              <p>7k a year out of pocket for me. I’m an instate student. It’s not that much, but if they gave out merit aid I would have been all set</p>

              <p>Instate student also, just received my financial aid.  I am also paying about $7k out of pocket, but am going to file appeal to try to get pell grant, that should help a little.</p>
