<p>Hi, </p>
<p>If I decided to opt out of a meal plan this year, will that affect my "cost of attendance" for the financial aid office? And if so, will this reduce the amount of financial Aid I recieve?</p>
<p>No..it won’t since this amount is budgeted into every student’s FA package-even those choosing to live off campus.</p>
<p>If you did not qualify for aid…you won’t have to pay it. If you did qualify for aid you might end up with a sizeable refund which you may use at your discretion.</p>
<p>Thanks Dew.</p>
<p>thanks dewdrop that helped me out a lot.</p>
