<p>I know this sounds stupid.. but I don't know how to read my UCLA financial aid info at <a href="http://www.fao.ucla.com%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.fao.ucla.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>ok</p>

<p>so what does "Total Estimated Aid" mean? Mine says 20k. so Does that mean UCLA is giving me 20k?</p>

<p>Yes, but the type of aid is what's important. It should tell you. For me it's in loans >_<</p>
