Two questions regarding full need met colleges, but I’ll split them up into two separate posts. Here’s the first one.
Son was accepted into a great full need met college. They offered him a FA package with his admission. Because of his stats they gave him a package without loans. The EFC though is still higher than we can pay. Do you think we can still tack a loan on top of that, or would they say that they have already “met need” and won’t let us?
I realize I can contact the school, but they seem to be swamped and didn’t answer the phone (I am always on the phone at work so didn’t leave a voicemail… I’m going to try to call them again, but in the meantime has anyone had experience with this and do they usually allow you to add a loan to the package?
