<p>I understand that FAFSA doesn’t give you money. I’m saying I’m glad that the FAFSA formula computed a really low EFC as opposed to a really high EFC. I also understand that schools will often ask for more than the EFC. But that doesn’t change the fact that I am ecstatic that my EFC is so low.</p>
<p>The other schools I’m applying to and am financially concerned about are University of Wisconsin-Madison, UCLA, USC, NYU (I’m not sure why I applied because they have terrible finaid), Northwestern, and Carnegie Mellon.</p>
