<p>Son's award letter and packet came today. Full ride with grants, scholarships. No loans, no work study. Pretty sweet deal.</p>
<p>what were his stats, may I ask? and did you have to submit any additional forms (either than FAFSA) before getting this letter?</p>
<p>No additional forms. I don't feel comfortable posting full stats while decisions are still forthcoming for other schools, but basically, 3.9 unweighted GPA, lowest SAT 1 was 690, I think and highest was 780. No AP's, very few EC's, because the school didn't offer either.</p>
<p>A word of caution,</p>
<p>I was given approximately 14,000 dollars of grant money in my first package. That money would have made it possible for me to attend college without paying a dime(I got several private scholarships). This number shrank significantly once I had committed to coming to UCSC.</p>
<p>I've still not yet paid anything for school, but only because my parents love me :). No loans yet which is the good thing.</p>
