Financial Aid for SEAS

<p>My folks make around 140K or so before taxes (too lazy to calculate). I remember reading how it was projected that someone who's parent(s) make around 100K would only receive 10K aid or so. If this is true, am I really beat for Columbia then? Plus I know everyone says financial aid is the same if you're admitted off the waitlist, but is it really? Thanks.</p>

<p>Columbia's financial aid is not remarkably different than that of its peer schools; you're better off look at your EFC and your offer letters from other schools than asking these generic questions. No, you won't get any less if you're admitted off the W/L (you're likely not getting in off the wait list, but that's beside the point).</p>

<p>Thanks. EFC was CCS profile or FAFSA?</p>
