On my FAFSA I mentioned that I was commuting to UCLA when I am in fact dorming. My net costs right now are 8600 dollars. What willy net cost be assuming that I get this whole thing fixed?
How could we know? We don’t know your EFC. We don’t know if you’re accepting loans. We don’t know if you were given work study. We don’t know if you qualify for Blue and Gold or Cal Grants.
My EFC is approximately 1400 and I was given work study and blue and ogld
Have you asked the school’s financial aid office?
they are not opened. I have to call them tomorrow but I’m really nervous because I have to sign my housing contract by may 12
What does your aid package look like now? Did you receive Pell? Do you know your EFC? Try running their Net Price Calculator using “living at home” as an option and see if the estimate is close to what you were offered in your package. If it is, run it again and choose the “dorming” option and see what the estimate is. And definitely call them tomorrow.
Well, you should get more aid, but if some aid has “run out” you may not get enough.
