<p>My dad checked the application tracking site and they've posted financial aid estimates.</p>
<p>Just click "Award Letters".</p>
<p>I checked mine, but I don't understand it. I got the whole tuition part, but it doesn't have anything about r&b or books. What is the deal with that?</p>
<p>when i says tuition, it means tuition, room and board, books, extra fees included, at least it did for my package.</p>
<p>Here is what mine says:</p>
<p>***** COST OF ATTENDANCE *****<br>
Tuition & Fees: $ 45,028<br>
Room/Board :<br>
Books/Other : </p>
<pre><code> TOTAL: $ 45,028
</code></pre>
<p>That's the cost for everyone. Next to that, it says "RESOURCES". The TOTAL under that is how much they are expecting you to pay. </p>
<p>Further below under AWARDS it says <strong>TOTAL</strong> again. This refers to how much they are awarding you.</p>
<p>It's all summarized at the bottom:</p>
<pre><code> ************ SUMMARY ***********
Total Resources : $ ____
Total Awarded : $ ____
==========
Cost of Attendance : $ ____
</code></pre>
<p>Yeah I got that I just didn't get why it didn't have anything for r&b and books. ABK said its meant all of them, but why did it list them?</p>
