How often does uc davis look at special circumstances for financial aid and do they actually consider these for significant financial aid? Especially if my efc was initially above the cost of attendance?
UCD does not guarantee to meet need and the majority of the FA they provide is need based so if your EFC is above the cost of attendance, then you should not expect much aid other than student loans. You could always have them review your FA if your current situation warrants a re-evaluation.
