School's financial aid policy

Paying for College
1

<p>I was wondering if anyone would be willing to give me their opinions on Sewanee's financial aid policy. On their website, they state the maximum amount of loans they will expect a student to take is 6000, does that mean the rest will be covered by W/S and grants? Or will they simply gap the rest of the need? </p>

<p>Here is the website: Financial</a> Aid & Scholarships | Admissions | Sewanee: The University of the South</p>

<p>I have an EFC of zero and am independent, most schools have gapped me after Federal loans by a large amount so far ( loyola, Seton Hall, St. Jonh's, Henderix, Soka) Would Sewanee do the same? </p>

<p>Im still waiting on packages from Beloit, Earlham, Knox, Sewanee, Saint Mary's Cali, and ASU( instate).</p>

<p>According to Sewanee’s common data set, the average need met (cost - EFC) is 97.5%. They shouldn’t be gapping you by much after the loans. If you can scrounge up some outside scholarship money it will further reduce the amount of laons. Good luck.</p>
