Financial Aid

<p>Anyone start receiving their award letters yet? On the website it says that they start coming out late February so just wondering.</p>

<p>got mine yesterday</p>

<p>oh cool that means they’re coming out at least. when did you do your fafsa?</p>

<p>I got accepted yesterday, online at least I should get the actual letter tomorrow, I will post if the financial stuff comes with it.</p>

<p>alright thanks</p>

<p>Also, I made corrections to my FAFSA. Will the college automatically be notified of that, or will I need to contact them myself?</p>

<p>I filled out the FAFSA in around the end of January, I corrected my FAFSA the same day that I received my financial aid letter. I called Drexel and they said that if the FAFSA corrections effected my financial aid that they would mail me a new financial aid packet.</p>

<p>about how long after the FAFSA did you get your packet?</p>

<p>I filled out my fasfa in jan, but never recieved a letter in the mail, just an email. Also I just updated it yesterday to list Drexel…</p>

<p>I got my acceptance letter yesterday and the financial aid packet did NOT come with it and I filled out my FAFSA on 1/31.</p>

<p>I filled out my fasfa in jan, but just added drexel…do i have to resubmit or does it automatically update?</p>

<p>Resibmit it every time you make a change.</p>

<p>Alright, I did thanks. Am I going to get a letter from drexel if I can get aid? Does anyone know what EFC you need to get aid?</p>

<p>if you don’t mind me asking, how much did everyone get all together including merit and need based aid?</p>

<p>I got 17,000 merit based, and don’t know about need based. Probably nothing because apparently my family is not poor enough :(</p>

<p>Ok I got my financial aid packet and I got $1000, 1500 work study, and some standford loans. So with all that, it’s around 24,000.</p>

<p>I got my financial aid and it’s not very good at all. Attending Drexel will cost me 45k a year. I don’t know why I didn’t get more aid or scholarships. My EFC wasn’t very high.</p>
