<p>Hey, I was just wondering what kind of financial aid Wheaton typically gives out.... I know that not many students qualify for it, so does that mean they are pretty stingy? My EFC is 5500-does anyone know what kind of money they might give me?</p>
<p>Also, if any current students could give me some insight on the competitiveness/difficulty of classes and the spiritual atmosphere, that would be great!</p>
<p>They have an estimate of financial aid on their website: <a href="http://www.wheaton.edu/finaid/efcws.htm%5B/url%5D">http://www.wheaton.edu/finaid/efcws.htm</a>
I read on college review sites that they typically cover 87% of the student's need, which is pretty good. My daughter has been accepted and REALLY wants to go to Wheaton--we're anxiously awaiting the financial aid offer to see if it's going to be a reality. If God wants her--and you--there, it will happen.</p>
<p>Wheaton's financial aid awards are up on BannerWeb (ours was just put up today, anyway). It's almost exactly what the financial aid estimator on their website showed, so we're in!!</p>
<p>I went and checked mine...yeah...way too expensive, so it looks like I'm out.</p>
