<p>If an OOS student gets little/no aid to a UC, then he has a highish EFC. The fact that they want to borrow 200k means that their families dont want to pay anything, not even their EFC.</p>
<p>An OOS student with a 0 EFC would get a lot of aid to a UC, but still have to pay $23k…but that still means getting over $25k in aid. </p>
<p>I’m just wondering if the UCs are need aware at all for OOS students. Not saying that UCs dont accept any 0 EFC OOS kids…the schools may decide to accept some high stats ones or have other desirable qualities. Need aware can mean that the school may evaluate the quality of the student along with need and then decide whether to accept.</p>
