<p>Alright, so I'm going to Purdue for the '08 Fall semester and was wondering if I do transfer which school has better financial aid. My EFC is 0 and will probably be for also due to the '08 tax return. The schools would be NYU, Cornell, Boston Univ. I know NYU doesn't offer that great of aid but yeah please offer opinions also.</p>

<p>NYU expects me to take out 19k in loans. They barely gave me aid and most was loans. My EFC is 12k. Boston U gave me 32k in grants and 8k in loans. I think Boston U is bettter.</p>

<p>Many schools offer only limited financial aid to transfers. Check with the schools to make sure.</p>

<p>Wow you've got to be kidding 19k in loans!?!?!? Jeez. Yeah BU is alot better x.x</p>

<p>In general, transfers get much less FAid than those entering as freshman. You should contact these colleges and ask specifically about aid for transfers.</p>
