<p>I’m guessing this is only for ED students?</p>
<p>it should be online for everyone now. im RD and its there. (and dang its good…)</p>
<p>Sigh… still no Aid and i’m an Ed-er…</p>
<p>everyone</p>
<p>0 need based aid. <200k custodial + non… :(</p>
<p>So if it says Total Package: 44,282 I don’t have to pay anything to go?</p>
<p>my expected family contribution is more than my fafsa EFC…
I got only about 24k per year. Can’t afford the rest 23k</p>
<p>where exactly do i find this information</p>
<p>when you log in to your rice account thingy lol</p>
<p>You have to scroll down to the bottom.</p>
<p>So for National Merit Finalists - is the $1000/yr deducted from your grant? That part of the letter confused me.</p>
<p>accepted. but still cannot afford it. state school it is.</p>
<p>Good Good, now the wait listed might have a chance</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Okay, so your FA letter mentioned your NMF award? Then mine can’t be updated yet…</p>
<p>I’m really confused now. I got two scholarships, but Rice mentioned NOTHING about EFC other stating that “After a careful review of the items submitted, we have determined that you are not eligible for need-based financial aid.” Am I looking at the wrong page? Or does this have anything to do with the fact that I kinda forgot to submit my FAFSA to Rice? (It says that it’s missing…) Also, if I was a NMF, then how come it doesn’t show up on the scholarship thing, either? Or did I have to list Rice as my first choice school in order to get the $1,000? Thanks for your help.</p>
<p>No… my original comment was a bit misleading. My letter just says something vague about how NMS have their awards deducted from the grant. I went to the list of merit scholarships available and found out that they give $1000/year for Finalists. I didn’t know if that was what the letter was referring too, hence my post.</p>
<p>I got 0 =/</p>
<p>If you got merit awards, did it state that in your acceptance letter?</p>
<p>They still haven’t received all my finaid stuff, so I’m really confused here because none of my stuff mentions money. Should I just assume I didn’t get any merit aid at all?</p>
<p>^It mentions it in the financial aid letter which can be accessed online:</p>
<p>Financial Aid Requirements–>Financial Aid Award Letter (at the bottom)</p>
<p>Wow, I didn’t even qualify for need-based aid? My EFC was not quite 40k?</p>
<p>what the…? i can’t find anything. i see “financial aid” in blue, but there’s no link connected to it. does that mean, i don’t get any aid?</p>
