I wanna ask about finantial aid !!

<p>hello, guys. </p>

<p>I'm transferring student and wanna ask about that. </p>

<p>here's my financial aid summary from URSA. </p>

<p>Summary 2008-2009 Academic Year </p>

<p>Housing Status: Commuter
Financial Aid File Status: Complete
Financial Aid Notification (FAN): Not Available
Cost of Attendance: $17,667.00<br>
Student Contribution: $0.00<br>
Parent Contribution: $0.00 </p>

<p>Total Financial Need: $17,667.00 </p>

<p>Does it mean I can get $17,667 ??</p>

<p>I heard that a tuition is around 8000-9000 per year. </p>

<p>I'm little bit confused !!</p>

<p>if that's true, can I get more money than the tuition ?!</p>

<p>Sorta. Most likely, over half (if not more) than that is student loans. The $17,667 also accounts for living costs. So, if you anticipate that you won’t need that much, you may want to consider not taking as much out in loans.</p>
