financial aid woes

<p>im entering the college this fall as a transfer student (soph). i applied for fin aid, but they gave me garbage. they gave me the max allowed in all categories (stafford, work study etc) except for the scholarship part. the scholarship they gave me (3.9 at my previous school, good standing, etc etc) was less then 3000 a year. they say in their writings that the scholarship is not based on academics but need. but even that is not reflected. im alrdy signed up to go the the school cause i recieved my fin aid stuff after the deadline to accept the spot. i wanna stay... please help, what can i do?</p>

<p>i tried appealing my decision to no avail and i also reserved my spot before i received the aid packet, but is it 3000 for your remaining years or for each semester...i think the reevaluate the aid granted every year to account for a change in circumstances atleast thats what the finaid people told me</p>
