<p>Supposedly, if you come from a family with income of less than 70,000, all of the student fees are covered (via financial adi). You do not have to pay them.</p>
<p>Don’t know why the the fee increase is a huge ass deal as if low-income students won’t be able to afford it. I sure don’t call family income > 70k low income. What they should be focusing on instead is closing the business property tax loophole.</p>
<p>Not true. I know kids who come from families earning much less than $50,000 and their families are having to borrow from friends and anywhere they can get it to pay the tuition.</p>
<p>Good luck. I wouldn’t count on much financial aid next year.</p>
<p>I think you’re going to get the same proportion of financial aid to fees.</p>
<p>Yeah, I read the thing about earning less than $70,000 and supposedly having your tuition covered…and I was like, really?? If that’s true, I’m getting gypped.
Does it simply mean that we’ll be granted more loans? That doesn’t make me feel much better… )=</p>
<p>According to the fin aid office, we can see our package increases next week: [UC</a> Berkeley Financial Aid Office: News](<a href=“http://students.berkeley.edu/finaid/news/detail1.htm]UC”>http://students.berkeley.edu/finaid/news/detail1.htm)</p>
<p>It says most will get an increased grant.</p>
