<p>Middle class family, my dad makes over 100K a year. Mom doesn't work, sister is also in college and goes to UH, but I don't think she got any aid from UH. My dad is paying the tuition by himself, but my sister is living at home. I got a part time job this year but this means I had no income for 2008. I'm only making about 55 bucks a week anyway.</p>
<p>because your dad is making 100K+, i doubt you’ll be getting any more than maybe 10,000 in loans</p>
<p>damn, so financial aid could potentially be useless for me. I’d rather just pay my parents for giving me the money to go to college than pay the government plus interest.</p>
<p>yea, UT doesn’t give out much money and loans aren’t the way to go unless it’s necessary.</p>
<p>How much aid do you think I would get from UT? </p>
<p>In 2007 family income of $160,000ish but in 2008 our income is like $40,000ish. Dad is unemployed, not sure if he’ll get a job this year. Applying for Spring semester so would I get less aid than someone applying in Fall?</p>
<p>Lol, I’m gonna mooch off this thread too.</p>
<p>How much do you think I’d get from UT?</p>
<p>In 2007, family income was $85k. In 2008, my dad lost his job so the income was around $60k.</p>
<p>Anyone got any estimates?</p>
<p>If your family income is over $80k, don’t expect anything more than loans. Under that you may get some aid. I believe if your income is under $40k you can expect most of all of it to be paid for.</p>
