<p>So you got 1000 out of pocket? That’s good news.</p>

<p>Just looked at mine. I got a lot less financial aid than expected. They raised my EFC from the fafsa from 8250 to 11800! I didn’t get any pell grant funds and my va guar was a lot less.</p>

<p>I had a very high EFC and got little financial aid. I suggest you look at other schools if you want to get help with money! VT will not give you much.</p>
