<p>For anyone (past or present) who has received financial aid please post your EFC and what you got from USD. I'm extremely curious to find out what i could possibly get and it would be nice if i could get a general understanding of what things were like. My EFC is around 6-7k's a year and without a good amount of aid, i don't think I'll be able to attend my #1 choice school. Anything would help, thanks!</p>
<p>Has anyone received a finaid award or estimate from USD? When might those be sent to accepted students? DD was accepted EA and we wondered whether she might get an estimated finaid award. We have completed all the finaid forms.</p>
<p>My son has only gotten the acceptance + letter saying he has the presidential scholarship. It offers 10k per year for the 4 years. It can be applied to tuition/room board etc... financial aid dept hasn't contacted us yet though we did Fafsa on Jan. 1. I think even with a high EFC, you can still utilize the PLUS loans for as much as you will need.</p>
