<p>I am a freshman at LMU and I had similar stats as you. I say you most likely get the arrupe scholarship. They start at 12.5 and go up to 19.5k. With that efc, they will add an LMU grant on top of it for around the same amount, maybe more. You will get the standard student loans of 5500 and work study of 3200. You will get the Pell grant, acg grant, and the seog grant. LMU gives very generous packages for arrupe scholars that have a low efc (at least from my experience). Make sure you get your fasfa in on January 1st, they take a long time to give you your package. Good luck, LMU is awesome!</p>
