Fin Aid

<p>did anyone receive any financial aid/scholarship info?</p>

<p>Hey kullucka.</p>

<p>I got a packet of financial aid in my acceptance letter, but they gave me almost nothing.</p>

<p>I'm hoping after I file my FAFSA forms and whatnot that they give me a considerable amount more.</p>

<p>i heard financial aid is terrible for NYU.</p>

<p>did they list scholarships/grants under your financial aid package too?
(i'm trying to be optimistic in thinking that stern doesnt release scholarship/grant info until they are able to compare you with the regular decision people, then they give you your scholarship/grant amount???)</p>

<p>because if they did, that means i didn't get any :(</p>

<p>all i got were loans.</p>

<p>The financial aid package you get when you get in E.D. will list whatever they're offering you. They don't wait to list scholarships. The only way it will change is if your info when you file the FAFSA is dramatically different than your original estimates. I don't know anyone whose aid changed much from the original estimate.</p>

<p>NYU does have a stingy rep, but last year my friend got in to Steinhardt w/ a 6k scholarship and her stats indicated NYU as a target, not a safety.</p>

<p>The average student at NYU has to work two jobs to pay for tuition. Hopefully you all will will not have that problem.</p>
