<p>I got my packet from ED and i got Nil for fin aid though it lists fed loans of less than 10k</p>
<p>did anyone from past ED applicants get the full fin aid stuff in their packet or do i get my real fin aid in a few months?</p>
<p>or is merit based aid not released yet?</p>
<p>did everyone who applied ED send in the financial profile from collegeboard?</p>
<p>yah...</p>
<p>but i am wondering if merit aid is not included... as i did not get...=/ anyone know if merit aid is with held until later?</p>
<p>a2009, congratulations on your acceptance. Unfortunately, I don't know if it's different with ED decisions, but when my daughter received her (RD) acceptance, the information about her merit scholarship was included within the (snail mail) package. Good luck and I hope that the finances work out for you.</p>

what did it say for your total award??</p>
<p>i got my acceptance packet today and it says total award is around $30,000
but i think this includes loans</p>
<p>Stiftree,</p>
<p>7k ish all loans.... very disappointed as my parents are not rich. I called to see if it was right and they said it was. Ughh :( parents aint to happy</p>
<p>hmm mine was about 10k AU grant+estimated fed grant per term
so about 20k in grant this year</p>
<p>the other 10k is loans and workprograms etc...</p>
<p>i was expecting more fed pell grant only about 2 thousand a year</p>
<p>but this isnt final right? we still have to do fafsa and etc</p>
<p>It includes everything.</p>
<p>For those of you who got merit awards, would you mind sharing your stats?</p>
<p>would the AU grant count as merit award?</p>
<p>I got 0 and i still dont understand why =/ hopefully it will change after fasfa and ill get something more than what they gave me now with <10k in fed loans /work</p>
