<p>Hi guys, </p>

<p>S was accepted to Penn but Penn's financial aid greatly exceeds my ability to pay! My FASFA EFC was 11,000$ but Penn expects me to contribute 33,000! I am shocked because my adjusted income is only a couple thousand >33,000$. I really would like to fund my S' dream of going to Penn, but this is impossible. Do you guys think it's a mistake or is this the case for everyone else? What should I do to find out why it's so high?</p>

<p>Thanks!</p>

<p>Call Penn’s FA office on Monday, and discuss the situation with them! The FA office will definitely be able to tell you why it is so high/ rectify a mistake that was made. Penn’s FA is usually great!</p>

<p>Do you have a lot of assets in addition to your just over 33k income?</p>
