<p>What types of financial packages are you getting? Mine was very very small and am disappointed.</p>
<p>mines insane, i think at least. if i am comprehending it right!
for the fall semester it says like 22050 and same with spring. so i am assuming i add that up and its like pretty much everything for the whole year (51000) does anyone know if thats right? you add up the fall and spring and thats the total for the year?</p>
<p>Geeze, Oreo, that’s crazy aid. I got about 15k for the whole year, which isn’t all that much. I might give the financial aid office a call and see if I can’t wheedle a bit more.</p>
<p>i know! im so shocked. but am i right in just adding the two amounts for each semester and subtracting that from the total for the year for the amount i have to pay?</p>
<p>Mine was good, but it will change when they find out my sister is deciding to be a part time student for her senior year</p>
<p>Oreo - As far as I know, yes.
The best part of my aid is the Dean’s Scholarship - which means I’m pretty much guaranteed at least 10k a year, if I keep my gpa above 3.0. If I manage to convince the housing office to let me live off-campus, I’ll have everything I need.</p>
<p>Congrats on the Deans scholarship! Thats awesome! :D</p>
<p>Oreo was yours loans though?</p>
<p>i was pretty happy with mine…about 14 thousand per semester</p>
<p>were most of all your packages loans or grants?</p>
<p>i got a really good package too</p>
<p>around 23,000 per semester</p>
<p>hardly any lones–mostly grant money and work study programs</p>
<p>I assume you got these pre-packages from your CSS profiles? I guess I should submit mine really soon, as said in the letter. I believed the due date was Feb 15th right?</p>
<p>Financial aid was beyond our wildest dreams, but honestly there would have been no way to attend if it had been any less. I’d give the school a great big hug if my arms were long enough.</p>
<p>D’s friend was accepted today. FA gave them zero…just a $50K bill to look forward to!</p>
